Meeting Etiquette• Participants automatically enter the webinar in “listen only” mode. The
organizer will then unmute all participants. We ask if you are not speaking to manually mute yourself
• NOTE: VoIP participants have the ability to “Mute” themselves by clicking on the green microphone. However, if you would like to speak, only you can unmute yourself.
• If you are dialing in using a telephone and NOT using the VoIP you MUST dial the audio pin in order for the organizer to unmute you – if you do not use the audio pin and just push # when prompted the Organizer cannot unmute you
Meeting Etiquette CONTINUED
• If you are calling from a telephone, please do not put your phone on hold. If you need to take a call, hang up and dial in again when you have completed your other call
• This meeting is being recorded• Another reason to keep your phone or your VoIP on
mute when not speaking
• Use the “Chat” or “Question” feature for questions, comments and items you would like the moderator or other panelists to know.

Mapping of UKCHIP Standards of Competence to UK Requirements for Certification of Individuals

• Jean Roberts has mapped the UK Council for Health Informatics Professions (UKCHIP) standards of competence to the UK requirements for certification of individuals.– Common Overlap between the UK and EU-US Work• Many of the UK Generic Professional Standards do not
appear at this (intermediate) level but might be described in the basic levels (or not)• Some of the UK Generic Informatics competences are not
addressed explicitly, but it is argued may be embedded in more specific elements by implication• A number of areas where the US focus on detail are only
covered in our standards under the remit of 'in your own area of work
