The Lung Learning Hub is one of Australia’s most trusted sources of respiratory health training and education for health professionals. By completing a self-appraisal against our competency-based framework, primary healthcare providers can discover and complete a tailored suite of the most up to date training opportunities to improve their patient’s care.
The Lung Learning Framework is Australia’s best-practice education and training competency-based framework for primary healthcare professionals to diagnose and support patients with lung conditions. The Framework was co-designed by a national consortium led by Lung Foundation Australia, The Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand and Asthma Australia.
