Training

  • PEDS-R® online, self-paced tutorial

    The PEDS-R® online, self-paced tutorial is the essential training program for both practitioners who have previously completed PEDS® training and practitioners who are new to PEDS-R®.        

    The tutorial provides comprehensive information on PEDS-R®, covering its background, usage and how to score and interpret parent or carer responses. Through the tutorial, practitioners will learn:

    • the background of PEDS-R®
    • the components of PEDS-R®, including a detailed walk-through of the PEDS-R® booklet
    • how to administer PEDS-R®
    • how to score and interpret parent responses
    • next steps to take with parents.

    Training is essential to ensure PEDS-R® is administered accurately. At the completion of the tutorial, there is a certification test to ensure knowledge has been accurately obtained and the participant has mastered the subject matter.
