On Demand webinar: Maximising the use of digital technology in respiratory education and training

On Demand webinar: Maximising the use of digital technology in respiratory education and training

 

Many of us have embraced digital learning over the past two years – attending online conferences, workshops and events. There is no doubt that digital learning is here to stay. But how do we maintain quality, how do we keep people engaged. What are the tools and techniques to make sure your online learning programme stays fresh. What new technologies, software and apps are out there, what’s available, and accessible?

This webinar will cover techniques for engaging an online audience, as well as how new techniques such as AR/VR and gamification will help to transform training and education in respiratory care.

PCRS is grateful to The Burdett Trust for Nursing for the provision of an educational grant to support the Digital Technology webinar programme.
