DESCRIPTION:# Overview\n\n### Duration:\n\n3 weeks\, 3 hours per week **Fre
 e Certificate of Achievement available** on satisfactory completion\n\n###
  Start Date:\n\nThe course is run ‘live’ for 3 weeks from the start da
 te above. Once this period is over there will be no live monitoring of the
  forums\, but you can still join and complete the course during the remain
 ing period.\n\n### Why join this course?\n\nThe public are increasingly br
 inging results from genomic tests obtained through commercial routes. Most
  patients will present within primary care\, but they may approach any cli
 nician involved in their care. It is crucial that healthcare professionals
  presented with results from genomic testing have a working knowledge of h
 ow to manage these patients.\n\nThis unique course will give you the tools
  you need to understand the process of genomic testing within the primary 
 care sector and the difference between direct to consumer testing.\n\n### 
 Who is this course for?\n\nThis course is primarily for frontline primary 
 care clinicians within the UK (GPs\, Advanced Nurse Practitioners and Phys
 ician Associates) as well as medical students\, trainees and educators int
 erested in primary care worldwide.\n\n# Programme\n\n### Course start date
 s\n\nThis course will be repeated twice a year.\n\n### What topics will yo
 u cover?\n\n\n* The types of genomic testing available\n* Considerations a
 nd limitations of commercial genomic testing\n* An overview of the NHS Gen
 omics Medicine Service\n* Assessment and management of patients presenting
  with genomic test results\n* Ethical and communication issues pertaining 
 to genomic testing\n\nBy the end of the course\, you‘ll be able to...\n\
 n* recognise how genomics issues may present in primary care\n* use patien
 t and family history as a tool to assess genomic risk\n* communicate with 
 patients about DTC testing and its limitations\n* identify clinically rele
 vant information from different types of genetic and genomic tests\n* mana
 ge the patient pathway and institute appropriate clinical management of ge
 netic and genomic concerns\n* use familial data in accordance with ethical
  and data governance principles\n\n# Educators\n\n## Lead Educators\n\n###
