This document discusses the benefits of e-learning initiatives in the NHS. It provides examples showing that e-learning can significantly reduce costs compared to classroom learning, including development costs, delivery costs, and salary and travel costs for hygiene training for 3,000 staff. E-learning also improves quality by allowing for collaboration, innovative assessments, easier access to healthcare knowledge, interactivity through online communities, and increased consistency. E-learning provides greater flexibility, wider access to learning opportunities, self-paced personalized learning, and the ability to quickly update and share content. It can reduce the time needed for learning and speed the impact of training on organizational processes. The document outlines several national e-learning initiatives and content areas in the UK

- 1. 1 e-Learning initiatives in the NHS…..why e-learning? UMSLG / UHSL Open Forum 14 May 2007
- 2. 25 July 20142 Criteria for justifying e-learning Cost Quality Service Speed
- 3. 25 July 20143 Cost – hygiene training for 3000 staff Cost pressure Classroom E-Learning Length of course 1 day Half day Development cost £5,000 £5,000 + £25,000 Delivery £150,000 (£50 per user per day) £30,000 (£10 per user admin) Salary costs £261,000 £130,500 Travel costs £20,000 £0 Total cost £436,000 £190,500
- 4. 25 July 20144 Quality Collaboration leads to higher quality materials Potential for more innovative & reliable assessments Easier access to the knowledge base of healthcare Interactivity through online communities Teaching personnel freed up for more targeted applications Validation – national / SHA Increased consistency Impact on patient care
- 5. 25 July 20145 Service Flexibility Widened access to learning opportunities Self-paced, personalised Can be updated quickly & consistently Can be shared and re-used Reduction in administration Just in time, point of care learning Linked to portable e-portfolios Linked to development frameworks e.g. KSF Medico-legal issues / Clinical Negligence Scheme
- 6. 25 July 20146 Speed: impact on cycle time 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 Classroom Blended e-Learning Months Connecting for Health: Training is cyclical e-Learning is scalable Costs less to incorporate additional users Errors rectified on the fly Product changes on the fly
- 7. 25 July 20147 Speed: impact on learning time 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Classroom Blended e-Learning Days E-learning saves time: * Housekeeping * Introductions * Breaks * Skips unnecessary material
- 8. 25 July 20148 Learning architecture: combating hospital acquired infections Training Knowledge Management Performance support e.g. basic hygiene e-learning e.g. identifying best practice; identifying problems Libraries (incl. e- libraries) Online communities Knowledge sharing Access to data e.g. applying best practice; reversing poor performance 1:1 tuition; Mentoring Leveraging organisational expertise Action learning Decision support (e.g. Map of Medicine)
- 9. 25 July 20149 DH / SHA e-learning initiatives National learning management system / e-learning platform e-Portfolios – initially medical education (see www.nhseportfolios.org) National e-learning content * DH (formerly R-ITI) and Core Learning Unit * Multi-professional * Accessible from national platforms * Statutory / mandatory training is a priority National interoperability standards Why work nationally?
- 10. 25 July 201410 Fire safety (CLU) Infection control (CLU) Equality and diversity (CLU) Disability awareness (CLU) Blood transfusion Health and safety (CLU) Risk management Manual handling (CLU) Child protection (CLU) Conflict resolution (CLU) Data protection / Caldicott Basic life support – theory Major incident Clinical equipment – principles Medicines management / prescribing Vulnerable adults Violence and aggression Consent Statutory / mandatory content
- 11. 25 July 201411 Issues IT access / skills for staff; support structures Requirement for senior staff to assess electronically Negative perception of IT initiatives Localisation; loss of ownership Commissioning of e-learning content / IPR Sustainability
- 12. 25 July 201412 Partnerships with Higher Education Content development Modular approach to courses enabling personalisation Courses linked to KSF / Standards for Better Healthcare / reporting via LMS Accreditation, e.g. Health Informatics Quality Mark Life-long learning portfolios Interoperability between NHS / HE systems

Editor's Notes
- #4: Development costs: e-learning solution includes professional construction and design at £12,500 per hour of learning Salary costs: calculated assuming an average salary + oncosts of £20,000, 230 working days per year, giving a daily rate of £87. Travel costs: assumes that one third of employees will need to travel at a cost of £20 each.
- #9: Most basic hygiene training done through e-learning; KM approach is self-directed, but needs to have resources made available seamlessly Trainers at all levels move from a training focused role to performance support
