Antenatal & Newborn Screening eLearning

The Antenatal & Newborn Screening eLearning Module is a cross programme training resource for all staff involved in screening in the NHS in England. This comprehensive module offers all staff an enjoyable and flexible way of staying up-to-date with all antenatal and newborn NHS screening programmes, evidencing their learning and offering women and their families informed choices regarding the NHS screening programmes.

For Acute Trust, PCT and University staff and students this resource is freely available and will assist in ensuring training requirements and competencies are met in a flexible way. We at the UK NSC will keep this resource up-to-date and responsive to changes in policy, practice and findings from quality assurance.

It is free and easy to register and enjoyable to work through, with many multimedia features, an option for writing notes, pauses for reflection and a final assessment to check your learning. A certificate will be provided on successful completion. Those managing training locally will be able to access a report of numbers completed in each trust/university.

UPDATED June 2013: in line with stakeholder feedback and findings from quality assurance and ‘lessons learnt’ from serious incidents. This is part of our commitment to maintaining the resource as a relevant and meaningful learning tool.

We hope you enjoy working through the module and would welcome any feedback you have.
