| Description: | Launched by the Health Service Executive (HSE) in 2007 and
with more than 19 million hits in 2010, HSELanD is an online
resource designed to support the training and development of
staff working in the Irish health sector. Available to all health
professionals in the HSE, and those in voluntary and nongovernmental
organisations (NGOs), it can accessed by
registering at www.hseland.ie. HSELanD has become the
dominant online medium for developing e-training initiatives for
health service staff in Ireland. As of the end of 2010, more than
35,000 individuals (or approximately 25% of all health service
staff) had registered with this site. The level of engagement
across the four HSE regions is relatively similar, although
hospital staff tend to show higher levels of usage than those in
the community sector. The current article discusses the merits
of online learning and how the various features of HSELanD
can advance professional development. |
