To address the need for further education and training in Family Violence, a module is being developed using the innovative platform of Health Sciences Online (HSO). HSO provides courses and references in various health sciences disciplines with the intent of creating one of the largest, most accessible health sciences universities, GlobalUni. Through GlobalUni, thousands of health care professionals can be trained, particularly in developing countries, and the family violence module will be an integral part of many programs offered.
