Q: What does the weekly quiz include?
The quiz has been split into two parts. A feedback form which has two questions, How did you watch (Live/Recording) and how you rated the session. You will then complete a multiple choice quiz (MCQ) that has two questions that are relevant to the content from that week's session. 

Q: What if I don’t pass the multiple choice questions?
No worries, you can try again! Each incorrect response includes an explanation to guide your learning. There are unlimited attempts! You can repeat each quiz as many times as needed.

After completing all of the required learning activities (watching all of the sessions and completing all of the weekly quizes with 100% pass rate) then you will be able to download a certificate.

Q: How do I claim my CME?
Once you’ve watched all of the sessions (Webinars and mentoring sessions) and completed all of the weekly quizes (100% pass rate required) you will be able to download a certificate which will have your CME hours lists with the RNZCGP & CONA logos.

Yes! You can record any sessions you attended or watched as part of your personal professional development record, even if you don’t receive a formal certificate.

Q: Can I get a certificate for just watching the webinars?
We are not offering a certificate for this as the course has been endorsed with the full programme contents. You can however record the hours and learning in your own professional development record as mentioned above.
