Update from the TEL team

Posted on: September 5th, 2025 by Charlotte Murray No Comments

The Learning Hub platform has undergone major developments in preparation for receiving further programmes from the elearning for healthcare (elfh) Hub.

As part of the TEL strategy, we will move remaining programmes from the elfh Hub, and later, content and services on Digital Learning Solutions (DLS), into the Learning Hub. This will provide a single point of access to learning and competency frameworks for those in health and social care roles.

When elfh programmes relocate, we will communicate how to access the learning and view or download evidence of training compliance. Subsequent visits to the Learning Hub can be made by logging in with elfh or Open Athens login details. AICC and ESR links will remain as they are for the foreseeable future.

In the Learning Hub, information about elfh programmes can be viewed in the ‘about’ section.

Over the next few months, while we continue to move remaining programmes, some will be accessed on the elfh Hub and others on the Learning Hub.

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.

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.
