The first cohort of this module have completed their assignments and results are now in the post, well done on all those who successfully completed the module. Please remember to send your completed evaluation forms to Fitwise. The information from these evaluations helps to plan and develop the module to ensure it remains relevant and dynamic.
The module offers you as continence practitioners a unique opportunity to demonstrate academically the skills and experience you use every day in practice. It is important to note that the module is essentially a ‘do it yourself’ module with no formal teaching or instruction. Support via e mail is offered but it is the student’s responsibility to initiate this support.
Many of you enrolled on the module at conference in Coventry. May I take this opportunity to welcome you all and I hope you will enjoy your studies. The members forum on the ACA website offers those of you who are members of the ACA a useful way of supporting each other whilst undertaking the module.
Remember you can apply for this module at any ACA educational event.
