2. In the second phase, you will explore various national assessment method recommendations for functional capacity and the measures used within them. You will also have the opportunity to practice using tests/questionnaires that assess functional capacity and share your experiences and knowledge of these measures with your fellow students in the online learning environment (on Diakle).
