The benefits of Health and Safety eLearning – Tips from ISA-UK Member Optimum Safety

Health and Safety eLearning has become one of the most popular methods of study in recent years. The benefits of eLearning to the sign, graphics and visual communications industry include convenience, affordability, and flexibility. Learners can study at their own pace, and there is a whole host of course topics to choose from. It proves to be a great way to improve job skills or learn new ones.

This convenience and flexibility is great for people who are not able to attend face to face training because of their work schedule or other commitments. The types of course can range from manual handling, mental health awareness to cyber security and allows companies / learners to find the right one that fits their workplace, needs, or interests. They often have appropriate approvals and accreditations from highly regarded organisations and contribute to CPD too.

Health and safety eLearning can also be an affordable way to meet your training obligations. We have over 100 eLearning courses at Optimum Safety covering topics such as Health and Safety, Business Skills, Leadership, Construction Safety, Hospitality, Food Hygiene, School Safety, Health & Social Care, Employee Wellbeing, Fire Safety + more. Course prices start at just £15 +VAT.

The costs are much lower than the price of tailored face-to-face training (which has its own set of advantages), and is therefore particularly beneficial for smaller businesses and for companies that need their new starters to have a health and safety awareness when joining them.  If you traditionally travel for face-to-face training it removes the need for this time and expense too, resulting in it being kinder to the environment. Contributing positively to a business’s corporate social responsibilities.

Is eLearning right for your business?

So how do you know if eLearning is right for your business? The first step is to evaluate your needs. What type of training does your team need? What are your goals for eLearning? Once you have a clear idea of what you want to achieve, you can start looking for the right eLearning provider.
