COURSE STRUCTURE
OUR FIVE MODULE COURSE
This course is for chiropractors only. Students may attend the One Day Workshops.
Our course is structured in 5 modules. Modules 1-4 involve at home learning and set group learning days, which can be taken in any order within 1 year of initial workshop attended. Module 1 and 2 will be held on one weekend and Module 3 and 4 several months later. Each module will have required reading and submission of multiple choice questions prior to the group learning days, and written material required for submission in the month following those attendance days.
​
Module 5 guides you through the process of integrating Modules 1-4 to formulate and submit a case report for publication with Dr Matthew Doyle's assistance. This aims to increase your competence in evidence informed practice and your research skillset, while helping increase the volume of chiropractic literature available on the subject of family chiropractic care.
​
The course is not officially accredited however it is written to the Australian Qualifications Framework Level 8 Graduate Certificate specifications. Formal Learning Activities hours in Australia can be applied for through the Formal Learning Assessment tool in Appendix 2 of the Chiropractic Board of Australia Guidelines for Continuing Professional Development.
