Incredibly informative course, presented with ease of learning. A very small feedback comment – it would be nice to see the results of the tests so you can review where one needs to revise.

An excellent course which is very informative
Jennifer Lambert –
Thorough course but as others have said would be good to get feedback on answers.
Rebecca Marshall –
Long course, but good that can be completed at different times, and not all at once. I liked the knowledge tests
Sarah Smith –
Informative course, presented well.1 draw back for me ,test your knowledge, I could only do a few of the
tests, due to unable to open them.
Jackie Redman –
My feedback is constructive as I am sure you would always wish to have. As an Occupational Health Nurse looking to complete an Immunisation course I found the content limiting. For example the Hepatitis B course had a link to the FOM, but if you are not a member – then you cannot access the link. There was very little information on Hepatitis B courses for Occupational Health. Some of the ‘Test your knowledge’ not all the questions opened. As this course is aimed at Registered Nurse cannot see the value of several repetitive videos for each vaccine on how to open a vaccine box and mix a vaccine. I would see value in cutting up the 33 modules into smaller modules. Maybe a childhood section that I would not be interested. But I would be interested in a OH section on MMR, BCG, HepB, PCV23, Repevax – which I have bought as separate modules – but I still needed a ‘Immunisation course’ so I had to do the whole 33 modules some of which were not relevant to me personally. Overall a good course but for me personally in my role not always relevant.

Hi Jackie,
Thanks for the feedback. Yes, it does seem like this course was not the right one for you as this course is aimed at RHCPS who are administering all the UK schedule vaccines. We are looking at creating a course like this of Occupational Health professionals though the challenge is always in defining which vaccines go in that course as there is a huge variation services provided by that professional group.
Thank you for pointing our about the issue with the ‘test your knowledge’ quizzes. We have fixed this now so you will be able to go through them if you wish.
If you wish to move through a course quicker when you already have the knowledge in some of the lessons you can click on ‘mark complete’ so there is no need to go through content you already know including any of the videos.
We have a course on hepatitis be for travel and Occupation Health which I have allocated to you, this has all the Hep B schedules.
