Digital Learning

This is our first year of offering the ‘Focus on mental wellbeing for students’ course to our students as part of our expanded induction provision. The course has been well received by students and feedback has included that the course offers useful tips and information and that it is a good resource that can be re-visited in the future. The course is accessible and easy to follow without being too heavy or intensive. It gives a good overview for students in terms of their own mental wellbeing and that of their peers. We are very happy with this course.

Meritec have been great to work with, they really listened to what we needed and worked closely with us to design a package which was informative and relevant for colleagues. We’ve had some great feedback from across the business about the digital learning and I wouldn’t hesitate with working with Meritec again.

We have rolled out Meritec’s Mental Health course right across all staff at the business. We have found the course to be very informative, insightful and will help us breakthrough to those we need to. Thank you for all your help! We would happily recommend Meritec & the Mental Health course to other businesses.

Every £1 lost to fraud cannot be spent on front line services – more that can be done to fight fraud locally will help councils to respond in times of reduced funding. Focus on Fraud Awareness provides managers and staff with essential information on fraud risks and makes it clear that we all have a responsibility to help prevent and detect fraud, bribery, and corruption. The Digital Learning training course will be a key part of how the Lincolnshire authorities fight fraud.

In order to tackle fraud, we believe that fraud awareness training for employees is a vital part of the process. So much so, that we’ve made it mandatory for all staff. They need to know: What fraud is, What to look for and How and where to report suspicions.
Meritec's Focus on Fraud Awareness has enabled us to provide a simple and engaging e-learning session, covering the points above, to employees across the council in a straightforward and efficient way. Building on the effectiveness of the training and the positive feedback received from staff, we have recommended the product to partners within the Staffordshire Counter Fraud Partnership, a number of whom have now also invested in the package."

The sad fact of modern life is that fraud represents almost 50% of all crimes committed in the UK and the figures are on the increase. Delivering this important awareness message to in excess of 5000 employees is a challenge which is why Harrow have chosen to work with Meritec due to their solid reputation in Local Authorities at providing bespoke e-training packages. The process was relatively straight forward; we reviewed the original package offered by Meritec and were quickly and easily able to personalise and adapt the content to align with our Corporate Anti-Fraud & Corruption Strategy. The package is fully SCORM-compliant and we were able to load it directly to our learning management system so it remains consistent with our corporate L&D strategy. We are confident, it will provide real value to the organisation and will further supplement the on-going fraud awareness programme which is very much part of our annual programme of fraud risk work
