Abstract

This paper describes design and implementation of an institutionally supported initiative to convert Continuing Professional Development courses for health and social care professionals, from traditional face-to-face, to an online delivery method. E-learning specialists are used to mentor subject specialists, in producing effective, high quality online courses. Processes and tools have been created to promote staff development, for long-term sustainability of the initiative. Evaluation of both staff and student experiences will take place once the initial courses within the project have completed.
