Does this Module link with the Sphere Handbook in Action e-learning course?

The Sphere Champions e-learning module complements the Sphere Handbook in action e-learning course.

The course brings the Handbook to life through the use of realistic scenarios, helping the learner to get acquainted with its core messages and to understand how to use it holistically.
