Customer success: Modernising statutory and mandatory training
New Victoria Hospital partnered with Skills for Health to digitalise its statutory and mandatory training. By moving to a single eLearning platform, the hospital improved visibility, reduced administration and increased compliance to 91%, creating a more efficient and engaging learning experience for staff.
As an independent hospital, having access to the knowledge and expertise at Skills for Health has been incredibly valuable in ensuring we provide top-notch learning and development opportunities for our teams. The support and customer service from Skills for Health have been exceptional.
