GRADE online learning modules from ESCMID/McMaster University

 

These online learning modules are designed to help guideline developers and authors of systematic reviews learn how to use the GRADE approach to grade the evidence in systematic reviews, to create Summary of Findings Tables and GRADE Evidence Profiles, and move from evidence to making recommendations.

Each Video covers a specific topic related to GRADE and should be viewed in sequence.

Most modules are approximately 20 minutes or less and can be started and stopped at any time, and restarted at the same point at which you stopped.

Viewing is self-directed and anonymous. However, we welcome feedback.

Please contact us with any comments.

At the end of the final session you will receive a certificate of completion.
