Genomics Education
The genomics education elearning programme is a collection of elearning courses developed to support and educate healthcare professionals about genomic medicine and the benefit it will bring to patient care.
Ever increasing numbers of healthcare professionals are likely to encounter genomics in their daily role. As it increasingly becomes a part of routine care, all healthcare professionals, not just those within specialist departments, will need some level of understanding of the impact genomics will have on the diagnosis, treatment and management of a wide variety of conditions. The elearning courses have been developed for precisely this reason.
This engaging, interactive course is available to healthcare practitioners around the world.
Written by the UK’s Top Clinical Specialists
This online training has been developed in the UK by NHS England elearning for healthcare in partnership with Genomics Education Programme, the University of Liverpool and Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust.
This ensures this knowledge resource meets the highest training standards and offers a world-class elearning experience.
Made to Fit Your Busy Life
The engaging, interactive content, that’s delivered online, means you can study at home, in work or even on the move.
Plus, the bitesize modules track your progress, so it’s possible to dip in and out of sessions, and allow you to access them in any order, as frequently as you need.
Making this the perfect course to enhance your knowledge and skills even when you have a busy life.
Course Details:
The genomics education online elearning programme consists of a number of modules that are divided up into smaller elearning sessions. Each session typically takes around 20 to 30 minutes to complete.
An extensive module covering genomics 101 (e.g. genomics in healthcare, genes to genomes talking and drawing a genetic family history and dominant recessive and beyond), facilitating genomics testing, a masterclass in genomics in healthcare and patient choice (discussing genome sequencing) for the basis of this programme.
