Why are ProTrainings online courses different?
Unlike other e-learning courses, ProTrainings uses video training rather than reading PowerPoint text, which makes our courses more engaging. You do not have to complete the course in one sitting; you can stop and return whenever you want. You have 8 months to complete the course, and you can even view it after you pass, giving you access to new videos and downloads. Your certificate can be printed immediately upon completion, along with your certified CPD and Evidence-Based learning statement to evidence your qualification.
Under every video, we have added text to support the video, and you also receive manuals and free downloads. You can opt for free weekly refresher videos to keep your skills fresh. You are assessed during the course, and you take a final multiple-choice test at the end. If you get a question wrong, you will be supported to ensure you understand every part. You can re-take the test without charge. This may be an online course, but you can still contact us via phone, chat or email.
If you need classroom training or practical evaluations, these can be arranged nationally at your workplace.
ProTrainings are Endorsed by Skills for Care for both classroom and e-learning courses.
No more old-fashioned, cut-rate PowerPoint training — your health and safety are too important to cut corners.
