This program is designed to support you with learning about what life was like prior colonisation, and how colonisation, mistreatment through a range of legislation and removal of children has impacted so many. The courses also introduce the holistic health approach and highlights how to support and improve health outcomes. We hope you enjoy the courses and we look forward to hearing your feedback about using them.
The eLearning approach
These eLearning courses are designed for all Fellows, Trainees, SIMGs and junior doctors to use. They will provide you a full suite of learning from the first introductory Course 1 to the final, more self-reflective Course 4. Please read all the components of the course including the learning objectives, pre-course information and each module. If you rush through the course you will not get the correct exposure to all the concepts. There are links in the courses to other websites, documents and organisations. We hope these courses start your journey of having a closer affiliation with these groups in the future.
