Overview
This course teaches employees to be more aware of how HIV and Hepatitis B Viruses can be transmitted through blood or body fluids contaminated with blood products. Helping an accident victim or providing CPR in an emergency could result in the transmission of BBP. This program can help everyone reduce the risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
Twenty-five interactions actively involve the learner in the training. Lesson interactions provide the learner opportunities to apply what he or she has learned. The computer assesses the learner's level of understanding of all learning objectives. All questions in this course are fully narrated. Narrations enhance comprehension and are welcome support for learners with reading skill deficits and when English is the learner's second language. When the learner answers a question incorrectly the computer provides remedial instruction and reviews the material until the learner can answer correctly. Mastery's exclusive Follow-up Review, standard in all Mastery Advantage courses, provides time-delayed reinforcement and review of the learner's newly acquired knowledge. The Follow-up Review enhances the transfer of newly acquired knowledge to the learner's long-term memory.
