Deputy Managing Director at Heart/NSTA Trust, Dr. Cheryl McLaughlin says the agency remains committed to creating flexible and diverse learning opportunities for trainees.

She made the remark at the Trust’s Inaugural Flexible Learning Week launch ceremony, held under the theme, ‘Catalyst for Change: Transforming Flexible Learning for Tomorrow.’

Flexible learning refers to the ability to customize one’s pace, place and mode of learning.

Learning can take place in a variety of settings, including in the classroom, or at home via the internet.

The Trust has incorporated this learning concept into its teaching model, offering a range of its courses via face-to-face, online and blended models.

Dr. McLaughlin notes that the Trust will continue to use technologies and other methodologies, to transform how students learn.

She says this is critical, given the changing global education and work environment.

 

She is encouraging all staff and trainees to champion flexible learning, so that it can become more embedded in the education sector.
