The benefits of eLearning as a method of menopause education

Remote learning has always been a great way to reach every member of your team, allowing you to offer consistent and high-quality training at all levels and all locations. Which is why, when it comes to menopause awareness training, our eLearning packages are proving so popular.

Why undertaking menopause training courses is crucial for businesses across all industries

We’re hearing much more about menopause these days, in the media, in workplaces, even in Parliament. It would be unwise for organisations to ignore this new-found traction. Women over 50 are the fastest-growing workplace demographic, and the average age of menopause in the UK is 51. This means more of us than ever before will be working through the menopause transition and beyond.

While some people sail through, for others it can be more of a struggle. Symptoms can be physical, like hot flushes, headaches, fatigue and heavy or irregular periods, or psychological, such as anxiety, loss of confidence and brain fog.

Responsible employers want to look after the wellbeing of their colleagues, and putting in place some menopause guidance and support can really help. This is where our eLearning training comes in. We’re not born with the knowledge of menopause and it’s absolutely not something that ‘just women’ need to understand. Everyone within your organisation needs to know what menopause is, what its impacts can be and how to support themselves and others at work.

Our menopause in the workplace elearning course makes it easy for you to provide your managers and colleagues with menopause knowledge, learning anytime anywhere. The course only takes 3o minutes and equips everyone to support menopause at work using easy-to-follow modules.

What makes our menopause eLearning courses stand out from the rest?

We understand that when it comes to training there isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. This is why we offer a range of options, licensed for unlimited use within your organisation. They’re quick and easy to install, always available, without costly licence fees and can sit on your own LMS or existing eLearning system.

You can choose from off-the-shelf solutions with our branding, customised with your own branding and additional content, or bespoke solutions. We can also help you with project management, helping you decide which option is right for you, as well as technical support for a smooth and straightforward installation.

Plus, our menopause in the workplace eLearning sessions has independent CPD accreditation. This means they’re professionally designed to help you achieve the right learning outcomes.

What our eLearning courses can offer

Our courses are designed for managers and colleagues, and are in easy-to-follow modules. In just 30 minutes they’ll gain an understanding of all they need to know and do to support menopause at work.

This includes knowing the key facts about menopause and how it can affect someone at work, how to support themselves and colleagues, and how to feel confident to talk about it and take action, whether that’s asking for help or providing it.

The modules include:

• Why we need to talk about menopause now
• What menopause is and how it could affect someone at work
• What line managers and colleagues can do
• Having the right conversations
• Where help and support is available: in and out of work

All include evidence-based information supported by real-life scenarios, and feature quizzes and videos to reinforce and assess learning.
