Time to give your LMS a clean bill of health
Healthcare Providers
Many healthcare professionals are operating in challenging and super-fast paced environments, with new problems to overcome each day.
Increased demands on our healthcare services, exacerbated by the pandemic, have contributed to staff having less available time to dedicate to learning and development.
In response, many healthcare organisations, operating with constrained budgets, are now moving their training provision completely online and reaping the rewards.

Upskill healthcare professionals quickly and flexibly
Scheduling entire healthcare teams to participate in training workshops is unrealistic and almost impossible, due to different team members working across various rotas and shift patterns.
Pre-pandemic, delivering recurring training workshops to staff would have incurred high costs and pushed already tight learning and development (L&D) budgets to breaking point. Thankfully, online learning provides a much more cost-effective alternative for healthcare providers.
A dedicated learning management system (LMS) allows healthcare organisations to schedule autonomous learning, giving staff the opportunity to complete their training modules at their own pace, around their evolving shift patterns.
Training can be accessed across desktop, tablet, and mobile phones and studied from anywhere, at any time, including at work or home.
One of the biggest dilemmas for healthcare providers is choosing a suitable LMS for their needs. With so much choice available, it can sometimes feel overwhelming selecting the most appropriate platform to serve your people.
We are multi-award-winning digital experts in Moodle and Totara — two of the most popular open-source learning platforms on the planet. Moodle has well over 200 million users worldwide.
We are among a small and highly prestigious number of Moodle and Totara strategic delivery partners and over the years, some of the world’s biggest brands, including PepsiCo and the NHS, have entrusted us to deliver their learning platforms, e-learning materials, and employee training.
An LMS is a scalable solution which can grow along with your organisation. We have previously supported healthcare providers with sites that have over 500K users.
Digital training to keep your staff and patients safe
To ensure your employees continue to deliver safe and effective healthcare to their patients, it is critical that they have ready access to the latest training available.
The healthcare sector is highly regulated, and in an ever-changing landscape, with new treatments, medicines, and procedures to follow, it is paramount that training courses can be quickly refreshed, to include the latest information.
An LMS provides a reliable and centralised hub for healthcare professionals to access their training. Management or LMS administrators can easily make changes to existing course content or create brand new courses to ensure training remains relevant, consistent, and accurate.
Moodle and Totara can host engaging SCORM-compliant course content, including videos, animations, quizzes, and much more, and the user experience and user interfaces are intuitively designed, helping your people navigate to what they need.
With healthcare professionals being so time-strapped, e-learning can also be setup in smaller bitesize chunks, allowing your people to tackle training in shorter bursts, which avoids employees becoming overwhelmed with large amounts of coursework.
Totara and Moodle also have many native social features, such as forums or polls, which can be used to facilitate collaborative learning and foster an open dialogue between staff in your organisation.
Compliance management across an entire organisation
Healthcare is one of the most highly regulated industries in the world, with strict compliance practices, and therefore it is essential that all employees avoid non-compliance due to incomplete training.
With many healthcare trusts stretched out across expansive geographic regions, this can make tracking the completion of compliance training a huge challenge for Management and L&D professionals.
An LMS creates a familiar and centralised hub for healthcare professionals to access, with uniform training provided to all employees.
Moodle and Totara feature advanced reporting tools and functions, which can gather compliance training data in a single location from across an entire trust, giving a complete picture of who has completed their training, and who needs chasing. Assessment and grading data can also be accessed via sophisticated dashboards, powered by real-time LMS data.
This holistic picture of engagement and achievement can also support L&D departments with calculating their training ROI (Return on Investment).
Our Digital team can also support your organisation with the seamless integration of your third-party platforms. These platforms can include CRMs, databases, cloud-storage solutions, CMS powered websites, plus, much more.
Tackle departmental training with multi-tenancy
Each healthcare department requires their own training plan and tailored e-learning content, relating to their area of expertise, but the prospect of L&D teams purchasing an LMS for each individual department is unrealistic due to tight budgets.
Fortunately, Moodle and Totara both feature multi-tenancy functionality. Multi-tenancy allows organisations to split their LMS platform into departments, teams, or divisions, and provide different learning experiences on a single installation.
These multi-tenancies can be managed by system administrators as independent entities. Administrators can also control custom themes, permissions, and learning content, to provide tailored learning environments and experiences for different audiences.
Moodle and Totara are open-source LMS platforms, which allows developers from around the world to contribute code and build intuitive new features, and our very own Digital team have created the ultimate multi-tenancy plugin to help healthcare providers setup their digital learning on a departmental basis.
‘Accipio One’ is our specialist plugin eco-system that extends Moodle and Totara and takes them to the next level. Our customers gain access to hundreds of additional features which are always evolving to address the real-world problems our clients face.
Our Accipio Organisation Manager plugin can empower your organisation to extend LMS control to trusted client administrators, allowing them to self-manage at scale – so you don’t have to.
Can you imagine the amount of resource and time your organisation could save by allowing departmental admins to handle basic LMS administration tasks?
You stay in ultimate control, but you can now also lighten the load, by offsetting tasks to your various L&D teams. From account creation, assignment grading, and user management to running custom reports and even customising the look and feel of the LMS site.
Accipio Organisation Manager has enabled our healthcare clients to hand-over routine administrative tasks to their different departments, while supporting hundreds of thousands of end users with their professional development and training.
Built by a market leading certified Moodle and Totara partner.
Trusted by the biggest brands in the world.
