Over the years Undergraduate Students of different health sciences streams have convinced us that the UG stage is the best time to learn the skills of Literature Searching and Referencing. Many have surprised us with their learning speed and some also with their interest in learning more and more.  

The UG phase is the “learning phase”. When you enter the PG phase, it is a phase of learning plus patient care responsibilities. Learn NOW – the benefits are life-long!

We currently have six online courses:

1. Information Resources & Literature Searching (Free)
2. Introduction to Referencing (Free)
3. Mastering PubMed
4. Advanced PubMed Searching for Authoring Systematic Reviews
5. Reference Management with Mendeley
6. Reference Management with Zotero
   And “Resources for you” – a database of useful resources for research and writing!
