Training And Competency Assessment
The Training and Competency Assessment project was successfully piloted in 2012 with the aim of introducing online Training and Competency Assessment modules aimed at scientists working in pathology laboratories. The modules being developed are intended to support laboratory technical training and as a resource for continuing education.
