This was an exceptionally good course. Insomnia is a very common problem in primary care. It is nice to have such a clear overview and recommendations for treatment.

Easily digestible and concise. The summation of the CBT-i /medication study was especially helpful. The percentages represented within the simple graphics made it very easy for me to remember.
