Good course
very helpfull
ok
I found this course very useful for my clinical practice as a consultant in pain medicine
This course is full of typos, as well as sentences that don't make sense. One of the assessment questions is incorrect. The overall quality really needs improving - with so many mistakes and typing errors, it makes me wonder about the accuracy of the content too, which is a shame as this sort of training needs to be available far and wide.
There is a typo error in the Fragile X question.
Course was interesting and I have improved my knowledge of learning disabilities
fix assessment please
Very useful but some of the wording needs correction.
Very useful. Some questions were slightly ambiguous
