Telehealth (Short Course)

What to expect:

This 20 hour course is relevant to anyone working in a modern health system. Technology has brought about massive change to health services over recent decades, opening up new ways of delivering services which traditionally may have only been able to be delivered face to face.

The term ‘Telehealth’ encompasses a broad range of services. Telehealth is also sometimes known as TECS, an acronym for Technology Enabled Care Services. This involves different technologies designed and used to meet health requirements of patients. Telehealth services may also be used for training healthcare workers, and meetings of healthcare staff.

How does it work?

At the end of each lesson, you will be given a short interactive test to undertake, which will provide an indication of how your learning is progressing. Upon completing the very last lesson, you will be offered a more thorough automated test or examination. This final assessment can be undertaken at any time of day or night; and any day of the week; and if you achieve an overall pass (60% or more); you will be able to obtain a “certificate of completion” with your name and completion date on it.

Note: these short courses are self-guided online courses and are not to be confused with our tutor-supported online courses.
