PHIA and FIPPA training
by MAHN Info 10 Sep '24

10 Sep '24

Hi Everyone, The training certificates for both FIPPA and PHIA are the same (both say PHIA). I am not certain why that is as they are separate training. Please be sure to complete both training courses and upload the certificate to both assignment drop boxes even if they are the same certificate. Thanks, Jessica

Attached is a list of readings that must be completed by Sunday September 8. If you wish, you can complete the readings before the program starts. You will be required to complete a quiz on the attached readings. That quiz will be available to you starting orientation week.

Sunday September 15 will be the due date to complete the Dietitians of Canada "Swallow Screen and Assessment Course". This course will take 5 to 6 hours to complete and will be available at no cost to you. If you are not satisfied with your grade for this course and wish to do a rewrite you may do so at your own expense. This course counts toward 2.5% of your grade for HNSC 7700.
