Our health and social care team and system developers are constantly updating our ELearning catalogue, adding on average 2-3 full online courses every month. Keep an eye on our full A-Z catalogue of e-learning courses and online programs for updates.

Who are these online courses and programs for?

Are you interested in providing care for people, or improving people’s lives? Maybe you already work in the healthcare or social care sector and you are just looking to get some new skills or knowledge or refresh your existing knowledge? The healthcare and social care sectors are extremely rewarding industries to work in. LearnPac Systems offer  a wide range of health & social care distance learning courses to help you in gaining an understanding of the core elements of this sector.

Online course accreditation & qualifications

All our online courses and programs lead to either an accredited/endorsed Certificate Awards or a full Ofqual (QCF/RQF) listed Qualification. We provide health and social care courses from Level 2 to Level 6 QCF/RQF Qualification including Preparing to Work in Adult Social Care, Health & Social Care and management training courses.

Why e-learning for health & social care?

The health and social care sector is the largest employment provider in the UK. In addition the UK NHS is one of the largest employers in the world. As such, the NHS is expected to invest in high quality training in an efficient and cost effective manner. Our healthcare and social care training courses are tailored to the needs of hospitals, community and private sector settings. 

Our course developers have extensive experience working in the NHS, private sector and UK university settings. We are acutely aware that those new to healthcare and social care need adequate induction training, as well as effective on-boarding and continuing support to ensure that they get exposed to varied caseloads to aid learning and development. Support for trainees and new employees varies between different health and social care providers. In addition, the resource constraints and staff shortages have a significant impact on training budget and ability to release staff to attend appropriate teaching sessions. The lack of a clearly defined national knowledge base for trainers and learners to use as a reference point. This leads to variations between providers and potentially impact on patient care. 

LearnPac Systems provides interactive online learning solutions for healthcare and social care providers. Some refer to this as online learning e-learning/eLearning/e learning, home learning or distance learning. A combination of online learning and the traditional classroom teaching method is referred to as blended learning. There are a number of subjects that still require the traditional classroom teaching and assessments, for example cardio-pulmonary resuscitation and moving and handling. The majority of the core health and social care modules can be delivered through online learning solutions.  

Health and Social Care Courses Online – Distance Learning

LearnPac Systems offers a wide range of health and social care courses and programs/qualifications through distance learning. Many people now prefer home based studying to complete courses ranging from entry level courses to full qualifications and degrees. Our health and social care distance learning courses have many advantages including:

  • Based on Care Quality Commission regulatory framework
  • Mapped to Skills for Care and Skills for Health’s UK Core Skills Training Framework (CSTF) 
  • Developed by experts who have the necessary occupational experience and qualifications thus are able to create quality assured e-learning materials covering the whole curriculum
  • E-Learning content available to anyone who has internet connection, whether via computer, laptop, tablet or even mobile phone
  • Ability to select a range of training courses as required or in line with your needs and complete your courses in any order you prefer
  • Electronic assessments provide evidence of successful completion in line with Health Education England requirements

How does ELearning fit with other types of training?

LearnPac Systems offers blended learning opportunities for health and social care providers. This means that you can use our online learning materials to complement existing induction programs and other classroom based training courses. Our online health and social care courses and qualifications are designed to equip learners with the skills and knowledge needed to care for others in a broad range of healthcare or social care settings. For example, learners can choose relevant pathways to complete a Diploma in Health and Social Care thus providing flexibility to suit various fields of health and social care (e.g., dementia, learning disability, caring for children and young people etc.). This qualification helps health and social care providers to meet the requirements set out by the Quality Care Commission (CQC) in England and the Care Councils in Wales and Northern Ireland.
