Methods of Education to Achieve the Objectives

Every video has specific objectives to be achieved

Initially , participant will have  pre-test as a part of assessment steps

Participant will watch videos accompanied by  images, pdf files , figures or diagrams. At the end , participant must pass post-test to get certification of completion. Participant must follow the learning path in the platform

Evaluation of Scientific Activity by the Participants

By evaluation form after completing course , it will be send to participants. It is an important to know that it will be mandatory to get certification

Speaker

Dr. Adam Le Gresley

Professor of Organic Chemistry at Kingston University in London, UK
