Are you interested in creating content for LearnUpon? The Professional Development Committee is now reviewing submissions through the new Course Request Form*.

Would you like to develop a course to share your knowledge with your fellow diagnosticians? Or do you have an idea you’d love to see brought to life by someone else? This form is a way to make it happen.

Q: What options are available with the course request form? 

  1. Submit Your Own Course Ideas: Have expertise in a particular area? Passionate about a topic not yet covered in our courses? Now's your chance to become a Subject Matter Expert (SME) where you can share your knowledge and contribute to our learning community! Tell us about the course you envision and we'll work with you to make it a reality.
     
  2. Suggest Courses for Development: Maybe you've stumbled upon a subject you want to learn more about but haven't found a course for it yet. Or you recently learned of a topic that you think our NPDN members would also benefit from learning about. Or perhaps you've noticed a gap in our current offerings. With the Course Request Form, you can propose ideas for new courses and we'll explore the possibilities of adding the course to our content development list.

Q: How do I access the course request form?

*Log into your NPDN Member Dashboard and access the Professional Development Program page, then find the link to the Course Request Form under the “Content Development Information” section.

Q: What happens when I fill out the form?

Your request will be received by the Professional Development Coordinator and Professional Development Committee. The Professional Development Committee will review your proposal and reach out following their next meeting with feedback and a plan for content development.

Whether you are a seasoned expert, a lifelong learner, or new to the field, head over to the course request form now and share your vision with us. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

As always, you may reach out to Allina, the NPDN Professional Development Coordinator, with any questions or feedback at allina.bennett@ufl.edu.
