STAT™ FAQs

My organization has purchased the training. How can I get access to online STAT Training and Certification portal?

Once your order is processed, two automated emails are sent to the email(s) of the trainees listed in the order. It is possible that the automatic download instructions may go to your spam or quarantine folder (some customers have mentioned that). Please check for emails with these subject lines:
"VU e-Innovations Learning System subscription"
and
"Confirm your account at VU e-Innovations Learning System"

Is continuing education credit awarded for successful completion of the STAT Training Tutorial?

Currently we are unable to award continuing education credit for completion of the STAT Training Tutorial. Our team is working with Vanderbilt School of Medicine to resume accreditation.

After I purchase the STAT Test Kit how do I become trained?

Along with the STAT Test Kit, you will receive an access code that will enable a single user to log on to the web-based STAT Training Tutorial. Follow the on-line instructions to complete the tutorial and the post-test.

After completing the post-test, you will receive an on-line message with your final score indicating certification status. Our staff will monitor progress and email users a certificate of completion or instructions for next steps to achieving certification.

Additional individuals in your organization can be similarly certified with the purchase of additional kits or additional certification training tutorial logins. Please consult the Purchase Options page for more information.

After completing the STAT Training Tutorial, can I train others in my work setting to administer the STAT?

No. The STAT Training Tutorial is designed to certify individual users only. Additional clinicians in your work place are required to obtain certification through the STAT Training Tutorial or full participation in a STAT Training Workshop. For information about STAT Training Workshops, please contact Amy Swanson, M.A., at amy.r.swanson@vanderbilt.edu or (615) 322-6533.

I completed the STAT training and passed the Tutorial Post-Test. When will I receive the certificate?

Our team monitors progress and generally will email certificates every 2-3 weeks. For all time sensitive requests, please contact Amy Swanson, M.A., at amy.r.swanson@vanderbilt.edu or (615) 322-6533.

I completed the STAT training and did not pass the Tutorial Post-Test. What is the next step

Our team monitors progress and will contact you with further instructions, generally within 2 weeks. To expedite this process, please feel free to contact Ellen Grimes, ellen.grimes@vumc.org or (615) 875-1738.
