Arbour Health and Academy3 have partnered with Health Recruitment Plus (HR Plus) in the delivery of targeted, subsidised and accredited training to its members.
The Skills PLUS program has been designed based on feedback to assist practices to increase efficiency and productivity, especially within the every changing environment of healthcare. On offer are six accredited training modules which are mapped to nationally recognised units of training. The modules consist of:
- Learning Circles will be established. Each group will consist of three to five participants. It is expected that each student will participate in six hours of learning circles for each training module.
- It is expected that participants will receive up to six hours of one on one mentoring within their workplace. The specific agenda for the one on one session will be negotiated between the learner and the mentor based on skill / knowledge gaps within the relevant units.
- Students will also be given access to a variety of multimedia resources through the Learning Circles and mentoring stages, including videos, case studies, and academic journal articles.
