What is a Learning Module?
A Learning Module is a single 50-minute audio/visual presentation that you view on your computer, followed by a short quiz. The total time needed to complete one module is approximately 60 minutes. The presentation may be paused during viewing or printed to use as a reference.
Most modules include a 10-question, true/false, multiple choice quiz at the end of the module session. The quiz serves as verification that you have completed the session and tests comprehension of the material presented. Taking the quiz is required to earn continuing education units (CEUs) for a module, but, passing the quiz with a score of 7/10 is required to use this module as part of a specialty certificate or course. If needed, you may take the quiz a second time. New modules are created regularly - check in to the Credit Learning Center often to see what's new.
