COVID Vaccination Programme Relocating

Posted on: August 19th, 2025 by Charlotte Murray No Comments

We are pleased to let you know that the COVID Vaccination elearning programme is moving to the Learning Hub on 15 September 2025. A redirect from the elfh Hub will send you directly to the new location of the programme in the Learning Hub.

Moving content from the elfh Hub to the Learning Hub is part of the TEL strategy to provide a single point of access for all learning, for all health and social care staff.

After the programme has moved to the Learning Hub, learning activity is recorded in ‘My learning’, where you can resume training and download evidence of training completion.

Subsequent access to the Learning Hub can be made with your elfh Hub or Open Athens log in details, as we have a single sign on feature with the elfh Hub.

If you are an administrator who links to the COVID Vaccination programme using AICC, please note that there is no action to take, as AICC links will remain unchanged for the foreseeable future.

Four Nations Responsible AI in Healthcare Education Conference 2026 – AI in Educational Assessment: Reforming, Redesigning and Reshaping

Call for Case Studies

Conference date: 23 April 2026, 13.30 – 17.00, Online

The closing date for submissions is the 20/02/26.

We are inviting contributions for the Four Nations Responsible AI in Healthcare Education Conference 2026. This event will examine how AI is reshaping educational assessment across health and care, including where its use should be integrated, limited or reconsidered within learning and professional contexts.


Conference Themes

  1. Responsible AI in assessment: policies, principles and good practice to protect assessment integrity

This theme explores safe, ethical and trustworthy use of AI in assessment, ensuring fairness, transparency and alignment with professional and regulatory expectations.

  1. Keeping people at the centre of AI‑enhanced assessments

This theme highlights the continued importance of human judgement and prioritising the learner experience, even as AI becomes embedded in assessment processes.

  1. Developing staff and student confidence to use AI in assessment

This theme focuses on capability‑building across educators, assessors and learners, helping the sector use AI confidently, ethically and effectively.


What We Are Looking For

We welcome case studies that:

  • align with one, some or all of the conference themes
  • relate to healthcare education, including undergraduate, postgraduate, workplace‑based and regulated professional training
  • introduce examples of practice, innovation, evaluation, conceptual approaches or early‑stage work
  • may originate from educators, assessors, learners, organisational partners or collaborative groups

We encourage a broad range of contributions, recognising that emerging practice is valuable and that different organisations are at different stages in their use of AI.


How to Contribute

Submitting a case study takes approximately 5–7 minutes. Your information will support conference planning and communication.
