The fully online delivery format is designed to provide high quality learning with the flexibility of considerable work that can be managed on your time. However, it is a fully participatory course with mandatory assignments throughout the five weeks that includes the following SEQUENTIAL components:

1)   A Prerequisite Online Component (asynchronous – on your own time – due Wednesday before course start date);
2)   Schoology Faculty-Guided Online Component (with both synchronous and asynchronous sessions)

Students must first complete the Prerequisite Online Component through The McKenzie Institute USA website portal (and achieve a 75% pass on the post-test) prior to entering Schoology, the online learning platform for the Faculty-Guided Online Component of the course. Approximate completion time is five (5) hours, and it must be completed on Wednesday before the course start date.

The Schoology Faculty-Guided Online Component consists of students viewing of asynchronous video podcasts, posting answers to manual quizzes and faculty questions to a discussion board and receiving feedback on posts. Faculty will give individualized and group feedback on the discussion board and during live online synchronous sessions which will take place on Saturdays using ZOOM. Patient evaluations, group work on procedures and individual critique of procedures will also be managed in the Synchronous sessions.
