University College Copenhagen
For many years Københavns Professionshøjskole has run a course in cytotoxic treatment for Danish nurses on LäraNära. With more than 200 participants a year, it has become the standard in Denmark.
Getting vital knowledge out across all of Denmark
All over Denmark, healthcare staff care for cancer patients who are being treated with cytotoxic drugs.
How can we make sure they have the right skills, both for safe care and for a safe working environment for the staff?
A nationwide course delivered online
Inspired by similar work in Sweden, Københavns Professionshøjskole developed a course on LäraNära.
Among other things, LäraNära provided:
- A user interface entirely in Danish
- Single sign-on (SSO) with their intranet
- Simple tools for updating content
- Easy administration of hundreds of participants
A success story of almost 20 years
LäraNära's approach, where the same course content can be used in many groups with simple administration, has contributed to our long collaboration with Københavns Professionshøjskole.
A much appreciated feature is self-assessment questions, where participants get an open question and then reflect on their own answer.
The course is now the standard for staff working with cytotoxic drugs in Denmark.
LäraNära is a user-friendly and flexible tool that suits us perfectly for interactive distance courses. Being able to build courses from modules means we can easily reuse content and create tailored courses for different audiences. For example, we have a shorter version for hospital pharmacists and nurses in radiation therapy.
