- Day 1 of the course is a standard triage provider course and all candidates must get the course minimum of 80% to proceed to Day 2.
- Day 2 of the course will cover various topics including breaking down the providers course for training, setting up a triage task team, dealing with challenges on the course and in triage, etc. Although Day 1 is a bog-standard triage providers course, Day 2 is a very interactive day with lots of group participation and mock-up activities.
