<p>
<strong><em>&lsquo;I found this interactive learning tool to be most interesting. I had never done online training to this extent before and found myself keen to sit down and get &#39;stuck into it&#39;. The quiz was useful to have following each module as it helped me to &#39;tick off&#39; another section when completed. The package was well presented and kept my interest, well done to the graphics team! I wouldn&#39;t hesitate in recommending this online learning package to anyone who has an interest in Pulmonary Rehabilitation. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your pilot program.&rsquo; &ndash; Kathryn – Nurse</em></strong>

<strong><em>&lsquo;An excellent Training Program. I now feel confident to implement&nbsp;a Pulmonary Rehab training program into an Aboriginal Community.&rsquo; &ndash; Geoff – Nurse</em></strong>

<p>
<strong><em>&lsquo;Training was very good – this would also be a good resource for final year physio students who are coming on placement and participating in pulmonary rehabilitation programs. Excellent teaching resource.&rsquo; &ndash; Kelli – Nurse</em></strong>
