FREE Online Training Tool: COVID-19 skills training

Try out the ‘Peer-to-Peer approach’ to skills training with any mobile device.

The COVID-19 skill training for mobile devices is a free tool that allows healthcare workers to conduct efficient, fast, and engaging training for COVID-19 preparedness. At a time when resources are stretched and demands upon staff are increasing, peer-to-peer learning offers health care workers the opportunity to take advantage of a valuable resource – each other. 

This mobile webpage contains scenarios for training in donning PPE, doffing PPE, specimen sampling, and management of anaphylaxis following COVID-19 vaccination. It runs in any browser on any mobile device, and there is no installation or registration required. Simply open the link on your mobile device, select your country, choose your desired scenario, and start training with your peer. It’s that easy.

Training to perfection, together

Tick every box
With digital checklists, training is fast and efficient. Time, and time again. The results page is a perfect asset for debriefing and will make you want to beat your own score – can you get to 100%?

A safe learning space
Training with peers is a low-stress and safe learning opportunity. It has also been shown that the peer holding the instructor role learns equally as much as the learner.

Take a quiz
Because fun learning is better learning, the peer-to-peer training app includes a quiz to ensure learning has taken place.
