Improving eLearning

Thousands of new doctors and nurses join hospital wards every year. With patients’ lives in their hands it is vital that they are given the right training.

The HEYH eLearning materials have been hosted by ANS since 2009, but eLearning was starting to gain prominence, becoming an essential training mechanism for NHS staff.

As it is essential for HEYH to maintain 100% uptime and have a secure environment for its data, it is vital for the organisation to have a provider that is ISO27001 accredited and also part of the G-Cloud framework; the government’s cloud procurement service.

When first coming to ANS, HEYH used a dedicated server solution, but has since moved to the multi- million pound, enterprise-level eCloud Hybrid.
HEYH says: “We moved to eCloud a year ago and we couldn’t be happier. It enables us to reduce any chance of downtime as the volume of traffic we receive has increased and provides flexibility as the platform has evolved.”

As education platforms like this have made the move from traditional static courses including small, low-capacity documents and PowerPoint slides to video intensive and media-rich ones, it is important they are hosted on a solution that can match the ever-growing capacity. eCloud has provided just this for HEYH.

“The solution has been great and the service outstanding. No other company we work with that provides this level of support.”
