The online assessment is taken on completion of the training material. You will be asked 12 multiple choice questions with a pass mark of 80%. The answers are marked automatically so that you’ll instantly know whether you passed. If you don't pass don't worry! You can take the test as many times as you need with no extra charge.

This online course is suitable for anyone who works with, lives with or cares for people – including adults, teenagers and children - who suffer from anaphylaxis.

The course is equally suitable for anyone works with members of the public, as the course aims to help you to recognise the symptoms of anaphylaxis amongst customers or service users who may be at risk of anaphylaxis without you being previously aware.

The course may be particularly useful for people who work in establishments that prepare, sell or serve food as anaphylaxis is often related to food allergies.

This approach is built on the widely recognised Double Diamond framework, adapted to ensure that every course is engaging, effective and rooted in the learner's reality.

We collaborate with experts in the field to help pinpoint the specific barriers preventing safe or ideal behaviour. We identify opportunities for the course to solve these barriers, increasing the likelihood that training will translate into real-world action.

By training with us you can be confident that you are taking a course that has gone through rigorous internal reviews and external approvals to truly be built with the learner in mind.
