Can I give feedback on a course?

You can find a course in the following ways:

• Access your ‘My Academy’ area from the top of the homepage. This is your personalised area of the Academy where you can view the courses available to you.
• The categories on our homepage host courses with a similar subject area or for a similar target audience. You can explore courses in this way by clicking on a category of interest.

Each course is divided into pages. You can navigate through each course by using the next button at the bottom of each course page or by selecting  the sections in the course information block of each course on the top right-hand side of the page

Once you have navigated through each section you will complete the course by:

• Selecting the button "Select to mark course as complete " at the end of each course.
• You will then be invited to complete the end-of-course survey.
• There is also a link to log your CPD on the 1CPD app and other suggested learning.

Unless your course is mandatory as part of your role, most of our courses offer bite-sized learning that you can complete as much or as little as you wish. Some of our courses are divided into modules which are structured to make it easier to navigate large courses and help you to choose the most relevant content.

New courses will be announced on the homepage, and you will see them within your ‘My Academy’ area when they become available. By providing us with feedback through our surveys, you can help to guide the courses that will be available on the Academy in the future.
