Welcome!

I’m Dr. Rem.  I am your host throughout this training course.  I trust that this course will satisfy your needs and requirements for the activities that you plan to do at your facility.

So, let’s get started.  There are 12 Lessons in this training course that should take you about 40-hours. Each Lesson will have several Topics.  During end of each Lesson, there will be Knowledge Checks.  You will be required to answer all of them correclty.  If you miss one, you will be redirected to that slide and listen to the presentation again.  Once it is complete, you will be redirected back to the Knowledge Check and you will need to re-answer that question.  This will continue until all of the questions are answered satisfactorily.  Once that is complete, you will be able to proceed.

At the end of each Lesson, there will be an on-line test that is multiple choice.  You will be required to make 80% on each of these Lesson tests.  After you have completed the test,  if you missed a question, you can review the material again but you will not need to take the test again as long as you achieve an 80% or higher. You will not need to retake any test questions from that Lesson for the rest of this course.
