Taught
Having specialist knowledge in Pain Management is an increasingly important asset and extra responsibility of medical personnel. The online Diploma in Pain Management has a unique focus on interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches to pain management and service provision.

Assessment
The Pain Management course puts assessment at the heart of learning by using clinical scenarios to facilitate problem-solving, critical analysis and evidence-based care. The scenarios act as both the focus for learning and assessment thus embedding assessment within the learning process. Each of the six modules has the same assessment format.
