The overarching purpose is to promote more inclusive and responsive services for trans people in primary health care settings. The full module takes about 60 minutes to complete, covers a range of areas, and incorporates a variety of activities and visual content. It includes self-evaluation questions to assess the learning achieved. You can also choose to do particular sections of the module by using the index on the dashboard of the online classroom.
This online training module – the first in Australia – has been developed by the University of Melbourne in collaboration with leading clinical and consumer experts in trans health care. It has been endorsed by AusPATH, and is designed for general practitioners, practice nurses and medical students to become familiar with and sensitive to the diverse terminology, experiences, health issues, standards, and referral pathways with respect to trans clients (binary and non-binary).
