Are the resources compatible with all computers?

All of our resources are organised with well-formed PowerPoint and PDF formats. They can be opened on both Windows and MAC operating systems. If you still experience problems reading these materials, we advise that you use Microsoft Office PowerPoint and Adobe PDF reader to open the files.

 

Can I pass on information to my friends/colleagues?

No – you have paid for a yearly membership with AusmedOnline for yourself only. This is for you only to access and use the information. You are able to use the PowerPoints to teach others, you can publish the images, but you are not allowed to photocopy the eChapters, fact sheets and job descriptions and give them to others. This is breaching the Ausmed Terms of Use.

 

Can I download resources at my workplace but use them at home?

Yes, this is appropriate. If you have a slow Internet connection at home, we recommend saving the files on a USB memory stick and then viewing them at home.
