Courses have a strict naming convention

(Main topic) (Sub topic) (Other descriptor)

This means that a course would be named as follows

Blood Administration – An Introduction (instead of “an introduction to blood administration”)

Cannulation – Peripheral Insertion Workshop (instead of “workshop to insert a peripheral cannula”)

Course Codes

To assist with organising and searching for specific courses, we have adopted the following course code naming convention.
