All eviQ Education courses link to the most up to date, peer reviewed, evidence based information from eviQ Cancer Treatments Online.

eviQ Education courses are designed for cancer health professionals working within cancer services. Depending on the course, this includes clinical and non-clinical staff from medical oncology, haematology, community and paediatric settings, in rural, remote and metropolitan and regional cancer centres.

eviQ Education courses are provided free of charge.

Yes. All eviQ Education courses can attract CPD hours. Activities must be relevant to your learning needs and documented in a board approved format.

With the exception of Oral anti-cancer drugs in community pharmacy, which is accredited for pharmacists, eviQ Education resources don’t generally apply for accreditation from national boards. If you complete any resources you will need to log these as self-directed CPD and document your completion according to your professional body requirements.

The eviQ Education CPD guide is available under the Resources & Tools Menu on the eviQ Education homepage

A Learning Management System (LMS) is an education intranet or software application for the administration, documentation, tracking, reporting and delivery of eLearning education courses or training programs.

eviQ Education can be integrated into your health facility LMS. A LMS has the capacity to track your training records, progress and completion.

Your health facility or health organisation will need to complete an online registration form to access the resources within your local LMS. 

eviQ Education is a standard website which has no functionality to track or record any completions or progress. This is a function of your hospital Learning Management System (LMS).

With this in mind, please print out your quiz results or certificates before you close the learning window.

We have a strict governance and development process that includes extensive review.

All resources undergo strict governance and development review prior to becoming approved eviQ Education content.

Education resources must meet the following criteria for hosting:
 

  • Point of care education
  • Interactive and accessible design
  • Peer reviewed content
  • Appropriate branding
  • Agreed process for intellectual property and content review.

Read the eviQ Education Development Guidelines.

eviQ Education is a standard website which has no functionality to track or record any interactions with the resources. It does not record any completions.

We welcome participation in our review groups, and invite you to get in touch via eviqed@eviq.org.au

There are two types of review opportunities:

Clinical Advisory Committee (CAC): This group provide clinical knowledge and experience and members are required to attend an online WebEx meeting for up to 2 hours per meeting.

External review group: This group provide feedback to modules that have been approved by the Clinical Advisory Committee (see above). This is managed electronically and there are no requirements for this group to attend any meetings.

Reviews may be eligible for CPD points for their participation in the development or review of eviQ Education resources.

You will need to log the courses as self-directed CPD and document according to professional body requirements. eviQ Education provides a CPD guide which is available via the Resources & Tools menu.

Recognition of learning may look different depending on which resource you complete.
On completion of most online assessments (eQuizzes), you will have the ability to print your results page which can be used as evidence of completion. 

Certificates may be awarded on completion of an online assessment or a practical competency based assessment e.g. ADAC and CVADs certificates of completion are awarded after completion of practical assessments.

Not all resources include an eQuiz or a certificate. In this situation, you will only be able to record your self-directed learning activity via your CPD journal..

Certificates and printed results are essential for CPD where the governing board stipulates these as a requirement of assessment or certificate evidence, e.g. Pharmacy board Group 2 CPD. 

For general self-directed learning, certificates and results should be printed when available and retained to include with your CPD evidence.
