Infection control-How Blended Learning Works

How Blended Learning Works

How Blended Learning Works

You work through the theory at a time that suits you, and you then join a calm, hands-on session to practise steps with a trainer.

You can use a phone or a computer for the theory, and support is close by if you hit a snag. The face-to-face session is small and steady, and the goal is confidence, not pressure.

Dates, Venues, and Session Details

Dates, Venues, and Session Details

Theory runs first through blended learning, and the practical session follows with small groups and simple drills.

Sessions start on time and end on time, and breaks are short so focus stays high. You get clear time estimates for each part, and you can choose a slot that suits your week.

Proving Skills And Getting Certified

Proving Skills and Getting Certified

When you meet the standard, you receive:

Statement of Attainment: HLTINFCOV001 Comply with Infection Prevention and Control Policies and Procedures.

You complete a short knowledge check and show safe set-up, PPE use, cleaning methods, and incident response steps.

Practical tasks are observed against set criteria, and results are shared in plain words. If a gap appears, you get a chance to try again, and support is on hand while you do.

Locations and Dates

Practical days run in various locations across Australia, and new sessions appear often as demand grows. If you don’t see a nearby date, say so and a new spot may open sooner in your area.

Location 2 Australia

Pre-Course Requirements and Support
