WELCOME TO THE LLL PROGRAMME IN CLINICAL NUTRITION AND METABOLISM
The Life-Long Learning (LLL) programme in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism is an innovative and effective educational programme for medical doctors and health specialists offering online training and live courses, using a variety of modern training methodologies and resources.
The LLL programme in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism is based on an Educational Curriculum offering more than 120 training modules, created and peer-reviewed by recognized experts in the field.
Structure of the LLL
The main educational unit of LLL-Programme is the module. Each module consists of an updated review of a certain problem, a clinical case, a self-assessment test, and a grading quiz. Modules on related subject areas are grouped into topics, making it easier for the user to select modules in a particular field of interest. The educational curriculum consists of 40 topics and 120 modules.
The enrolment for each topic provides free access to the educational content and the opportunity to earn credits and certificates. The LLL programme automatically adds each topic studied by the participant to the individual portfolio generated by the system after registration.
The participants are free to select the topics and modules according to their personal interests and goals.
