Brief summary: The main purpose of this study is to compare the effect of teaching Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test (CPET) via e-learning and face-to-face to doctors receiving postgraduate medical education (PGME).

Detailed description: CPET is the most objective and valuable test for the cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CPR) program to be planned for back-up for patients with cardiopulmonary diseases.

CPET is performed in a small number of centers in Turkey, in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (PTR) Units. Depending on the equipment available during specialty training, not all specialty students can access this training.

CPET is the first test performed for planning cardiopulmonary rehabilitation (CPR). According to the results, an appropriate CPR plan is made for the patient.

CPET indications, contraindications, application of the test, evaluation of the test with patient samples, and appropriate interventions for complications that may develop during the test are important.

It is important that all specialist students have access to this training. The aim of this study is; To evaluate the impact of e-learning with PGME and to reach all specialist students in the future, if necessary, based on the results.

The focus of this study is to examine the changes in doctors' success levels, motivations, distance education attitudes, cognitive flexibility and anxiety levels, especially in the pre- and post-training periods, and to compare these changes with face-to-face training.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Those who gave consent,
* Graduates of the Faculty of Medicine and currently receiving specialist training,
* Those who can do what the training requires during the training period (participating in live classes, answering scales, etc.)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Those who cannot attend the training program regularly
* In addition, those who cannot attend more than 4 classes with or without an excuse will be excluded from the study.
