Oliver McGowan mandatory training has been brought in nationally to provide training on Learning Disability and Autism.
Training for Primary Care Staff across Gloucestershire is now managed via a Learning Management System (LMS.)
The LMS;
- Enables staff to register directly onto the system to access everything they need to complete Oliver’s training.
- Helps staff determine whether they need Tier 1 or Tier 2 training.
- Enables staff to access the eLearning package (part one of both tiers of training) directly from the system, and mark when it has been completed so that part 2 of the training is automatically visible to book.
- Allows staff who have completed Part 1 of the training to self-declare this, to access Part 2 via the applicable method of delivery.
- Enables staff to choose a date to attend training and send the information straight into their electronic calendar.
- Sends automated email reminders and information to staff.
- Enables evaluation and improvements by listening to delegate’s feedback via an electronic evaluation form sent after the course is complete.
- Provides certification for delegates who have attended the training.
Links to the system along with instructions detailing how to register and complete the training have been circulated to Practice Managers across the One Gloucestershire footprint, so we would encourage individuals to liaise with their practice manager in the first instance. Users will need to register with a valid NHS.net email account.
Whilst system partners continue work to expand availability of the Face to Face elements of this training, capacity continues to be a challenge and we are therefore asking Practice Managers to prioritise clinicians with greatest need.
Tier 1 and tier 2 training are outlined below in the infographic.
Staff Tier Requirements –
Tier 1
- Any non-clinical staff that are not patient facing
- We have been advised that for admin and reception staff it will be down to practice discretion whether tier 1 or tier 2 training is completed (please check with your practice manager or line manager if you are not sure)
Tier 2
- All clinical staff
- Any non-clinical patient-facing staff which will include: social prescriber link workers, care co-ordinators or health and wellbeing coaches
- Any reception and admin staff where their practice advise them to complete tier 2 rather than tier 1
If you are not sure which tier to complete please speak with your practice or contact the training hub at glicb.pcwc@nhs.net.
