Learners from 55 countries have signed up so far.

Every section includes Learning Objectives, Pretest, Content via HTML and PDF, Posttest, and Learner Feedback, and most include Read and Reflect case scenarios to apply knowledge and respond. A Certificate of Completion is provided on successful completion of a Module, and WAME Members [ https://wame.org/register.php ] receive a WAME Certificate of Commendation on successful completion of the entire course.
