Education

NAN DistanCE is an internet-based continuing education program. Courses are offered by leaders in the field of neuropsychology and utilize multimedia materials and "interactive technologies."

DistanCE courses combine traditional textbook-based materials with digitized internet-mediated content. The internet is used to enhance communication through the use of e-mail, interactive testing, and course-specific Message Boards. Participants work on "modules," with a typical module containing a teaching "lecture", and a web-based self-test; in many courses, modules also contain a case study, and a discussion via message board and/or e-mail. Participants can work at their own pace, but the course instructors tend to focusing on a particular module for only the pre-scheduled 2-week period.

Course enrollments are limited; please go to the DistanCE site to register for available offerings.

The DistanCE project is supported by the National Academy of Neuropsychology as a service to its membership.
