How Dynamic worked inclusively and creatively with a client to deliver a national programme of study for healthcare professionals

Dynamic has been providing the NHS and private health and care providers with training interventions for over 20 years. From role-specific training on systems, procedures and best practice, to general awareness-raising of vital compliance issues.

The requirement

For this project, Dynamic collaborated with Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust and NHS England and Improvement (NHSEI) North West to create a series of digital pathways aimed at anyone working in a healthcare setting. It is a unique programme of study for Infection Prevention Professionals, from a fundamental awareness of Infection Prevention and Control (IPC), to a more specialist understanding.

The solution

Dynamic collaborated with a team of subject matter experts to script, design and develop a programme, comprising three development pathways.


Each pathway contains a wide range of video, which includes experts in the field of Infection Prevention and Control answering questions and presenting information.

Our challenge was to create engaging, online resources suitable for both independent study and/or supported use in the classroom.

 

We developed content to involve different audiences at different levels using media-rich content.

We created ‘standalone’ units of learning within each pathway. Learners can freely navigate the content and access a broad range of additional resources, with the ability to evidence their learning.

An example of a foundation pathway screen

The Foundation Pathway includes activities within each Unit of learning for users to complete and record their findings in an interactive workbook.

An example of a intermediate pathway screen

The Intermediate and Advanced Pathways include e-portfolios for learners to reflect and evidence learning, if required.

Completion of the Advanced Pathway provides an option to attain Academic Credits endorsed by the University of Bolton.

Learners simply access each pathway via a learning management system to start the pathway that they have opted to follow:

"Working with the team from Dynamic, and Alison in particular, has been amazing. They have fulfilled the brief exactly as requested and done an amazing job.

 

The content we developed has been expertly turned into an e-learning programme which early participants are reporting that they really enjoy. They like the interactivity, look and ease of navigating the pathway. Throughout all stages of the project, the team at Dynamic have been responsive, professional and supportive to our needs.

 

It really feels like this was a joint project with ourselves and Dynamic as all discussions/ideas have been negotiated between both parties to find the perfect solution to fit our needs. This is evident in the finished product.

 

I would like to thank the team at Dynamic, for the package they have developed for us. They demonstrated professionalism (and good humour at times!), ingenuity and creativity with the material we developed and I would recommend their services for anyone wanting to create something along similar lines.

 

It has certainly been a new experience for me – and has been extremely enjoyable and informative as it is a world that I knew very little about previously!

 

Thank you to all involved."

“Working with Dynamic on this project has been a wonderful experience. The whole team has somehow managed to take what we’ve written for the pathways and just brought them to life.

 

It’s given us an opportunity to develop in different areas that I personally wouldn’t have had the chance to develop. Learning about some of the technical aspects, being involved in the filming, being involved in the project from start to finish has been great.

I’ve particularly enjoyed the inclusivity, the fact that it’s not just about we’ve done this and we’ve done that – it’s about what we’ve all done together and how we can make it better, how we can improve by coming up with different ideas.

 

The fact that you have taken on the subject matter from us and some of our ideas and combined this with your knowledge and expertise to run with these to produce a fantastic end product that is workable, interactive, and enjoyable has already been reflected in evaluations that we’ve received so far.

 

The whole team approach has been invaluable. You’re involved at every step of the way, working with numerous members of the Dynamic team.

 

Everyone has been so helpful - I suppose it’s that kind of... trying to find the very best... striving for excellence which, I think, knowing that you’re passionate about something and then you, as a team, have felt our passion. It has felt like we have all been on the journey together which, as I said, has been a wonderful experience from start to finish.”
