March course announcements round up

Posted 3 years ago

After a busy month for the production team we have seen a number of course releases, from updates to brand new courses. This month also saw our very first text-based course go live, to give our users an enhanced library and fulfil learning in areas that do not require a video format. While we still plan to provide engaging, video-based content for the majority of our training courses, this new format provides an alternative learning experience when appropriate for the length and subject. All of our courses provide a course certificate on completion, which is often preceded by a multiple choice test to ensure learning objectives have been met. Find out about our recently released courses below…

Emotional Intelligence

Emotional intelligence has a powerful impact on our personal and professional lives. It comes naturally to some, but it can also be developed with practice. This new course is for anyone wanting to develop their skill set in this area.

Legionella Awareness

This course has received a new look, in terms of refreshed visuals and a revised script. The content continues to align with current health and safety legislation, to provide learners with an understanding of what Legionella bacteria is, the symptoms and risks of contracting Legionnaires’ Disease as well as how to prevent exposure to it within the workplace.

Type: Health & Safety, video-based training

Liberty Protection Safeguards (to replace DoLS)

Our new Liberty Protection Safeguards (LPS) course has currently been put on hold due to a last minute update from the government saying that the new LPS legislation is not coming into effect in April as planned. A consultation period is currently underway before the LPS regulations are implemented, and we will ensure our LPS course is fully updated and accurate before we launch it in the summer.
