advanced postgraduate trainer, tutor, mentor, coach quality manager, expert in medical didactic

Gudrun Khünl-Brady-Ertl, MD, MSc. heads the Medical Teaching Center of THE IONM ACADEMY and is responsible for advising, accompanying and supervising the lecturing THE IONM ACADEMY  faculty members.

Knowledge is shared and passed on in high quality by experts. They show their experience in the selected training-area. These experts usually enjoy teaching and learning.

I am looking forward to meeting all these requirements in THE IONM ACADEMY together with the teachers.

No matter if it is a face-to-face event or an on-line-learning opportunity - teaching is precious!"

Academic high-level methods 

applied to increase your learning-efficiacy

The learning objectives of the respective learning-modules of THE IONM ACADEMY  are prepared in such a way that they support as many degrees of freedom as possible for the teaching experts but also for the learning students: so the learning objectives are to be worked on well in selectable time sequences and then verified. 

What has been learned is screened at the end of each chapter, not at the end of the learning-module of THE IONM ACADEMY  . If 80% of the questions are answered correctly (single and multiple choice), the next chapter can be started.

This gives you the certainty that the content of THE IONM ACADEMY  that you have acquired has been mastered to an unusually high degree and that the next knowledge modules can be built up on it - step by step.

 

Relevant information about the tests

In order to ensure concentrated learning in the learning-modules of THE IONM ACADEMY and a high level of attention, a maximum of 3 attempts per day are possible at the end of the chapter for the final exams.

If this does not succeed, the test can be repeated again after a 24-hour break.
