Generally, if you are a
Queensland Health Mental Health Clinician you are required to complete the
assessment to ensure you demonstrate competency in the area of practice.
If you are not in a clinical role, or it
is not relevant to your clinical practice to conduct assessments with consumers (e.g. a
risk assessment, Mental State Examination, or mental health assessment ) there
is no requirement that you complete the course assessment, however it is still
recommended as a measure of the effectiveness of learning and transfer of
skills. Ultimately this is a service decision so refer to your team leader or
local education strategy guidelines for advice.
Note: if you do not complete the assessment you
are not eligible to receive the Certificate
of Achievement, or Statement of Attainment for accredited training. You can still however receive a Certificate of Attendance to acknowledge CPD
hours.
More information about assessment troubleshooting can be found in the section titled Assessments.
