“Ineke Crezee’s Medical Terminology course is an excellent way to familiarise practitioners with this bewilderingly extensive terminology, but most importantly – make sense of it and find the key to further self-education. The course succinctly covers terminology in the major medical disciplines, starting with a historical and structural account of its Greek-Latin basis which bamboozles so many. Crucially, Crezee places the learning of each discipline’s terminology within its context, providing core vocabulary and its meaning and reinforcing learning with judicious repetition and comparison.
Students are required to read and complete all the course content, including watching all videos, and successfully completing all assessments. In order to attain your certificate, you need to score 100% on each assessment. Students will have unlimited attempts to complete the course over the length of their access.

In this course, we will have a look at some of the many aspects of the work that Speech Pathologists may be involved in, including some that may involve working with interpreters. Speech Pathologists may work with interpreters in scenarios involving the assessment of children with suspected language delay, and with adults experiencing speech and/or language difficulties after a stroke. Interpreters working in this setting may be asked to provide metalinguistic commentary as to how something is said.
