Important
This is a written, online-only course
All lessons and assessments are written and delivered online with downloadable PDF notes. There are no videos and no in-person days. Studying online builds knowledge; hands-on competence is developed through your own supervised practice, and requirements for professional practice vary by country and insurer. This training is educational and is not medical treatment.
