VIREPA Distance Education Program

Online application is now open for the 2012-2013 VIREPA Distance Education courses.

The deadline for application for all courses is August 15, 2012. Applicants will be notified of their acceptance into the course at least one week before the start of the course. At that time, applicants will be provided instructions for how to register and pay for the course.

VIREPA courses will start between September and November of 2012 and last until between February and May of 2013. Detailed schedules for each course will be posted soon.

All distance education courses are Internet-based, e-moderated courses with downloadable learning material. To earn credits in each learning unit, tasks will be successfully completed within an active online communication process among all participants, guided by the experts. The tasks will strengthen the theoretically gained knowledge and enable the participant to transfer this knowledge to his/her clinical practice.
