The players look like iPod Nanos and staff can hook them up to their laptop or a hospital computer through a USB cable. The computers, in turn, link to the organisational development department of the trust.
Staff can then listen through headphones to the training materials and use the navigation on the device to move on to the next section, or can watch mini-documentaries on the computer that back up the listening material. This allows staff learn at times that are convenient to them and their employer, and the organisation saves thousands of hours, as staff do not need to take time out to train other staff, thus the organisation saves money by ensuring working hours are optimised. There is 100% accountability as a complete audit trail is provided and modules can be remotely updated. Click here to read more...
