What is The ISPOR Distance Learning Program?
ISPOR serves the public interest by promoting the science of pharmacoeconomics and health care outcomes assessment by providing services to advance pharmacoeconomic and outcomes research and educational activities. There is an increasing demand on health care decision-makers to understand and use pharmacoeconomics in the decision-making process. ISPOR is bridging the gap between pharmacoeconomic information and health care decisions worldwide through the convenience of the Internet. The ISPOR Distance Learning Program is designed to provide knowledge and skills on pharmacoeconomic and outcomes research topics (clinical, economic, patient-reported outcomes) via the Internet.
Structure of the IDLP program
The ISPOR Distance
Learning Program provides convenient access to individual training
modules. Each module is self-contained. Modules can be used individually
or used in combination, making the learning program highly customized. The
modules are prerecorded, rather than live, and are available 24 hours a
day. The modules are presented in a relatively non-technical format and include the
following:
• an integrated slide-audio presentation
• downloadable slide presentation
• transcript of the presentation
• Certificate of completion
