Hi
I seem to only be classed as a "User" on here too. I did the DAFNE course last year before I got married but I think I may have just moved into my new house so my address should be the same. Is there anyway you could varify me using my maden name/DOB?
Thanks

Claire, click on the text 'Contact DAFNE Online' at the bottom of any page to send us an email. If you list in the email your maiden name, the dafne centre/hospital you did the course at and the approx time you did the course we can get you verified. Unfortunately DAFNE Central do not have a central register of DAFNE graduates only the DAFNE Centres do. Work is going on to try to change this but graduates need to sign forms to approve this due to Data Protection Laws. To verfiy you, we contact DAFNE Central and they contact your DAFNE Centre to verify with them you did the course. They then feed back to us and we change your account to graduate status this only takes a day or two.

Hi

I have just graduated from the DAFNE course (today infact) and I was wondering if it is possible to download the full DAFNE Course Handbook as 1 file instead of each separate section

Thanks

ian,
I have passed your question onto DAFNE Central as they 'own' the Course Handbook. If they say ok, I will make it available on the site. It would be in PDF format because they don't like us putting the docs on here in word format mainly because they could be changed and re-distributed as the 'real' thing. I'm not suggesting any one on here would, but its the could rather than would thats the issue.

Hi Marke

PDF format is fine, it just makes it easier to have a copy on my PDA where it is not possible to connect to the net to read it online

Many thanks

Ian

Hi, I have entered a valid code but the handbook link still does not appear on the right hand side. Any thing else I need to do or is it just a case of waiting a day or two?
Thanks
