COVID-19 RET

Covid-19 learning platform is an online web and mobile based large-scale training solution developed by combining Empower’s digital (and blended) products and services, including (a) Learning platform (b) Impact measurement tools and (c) E-learning content. Empower’s learning solutions have helped several thousand health professionals across 40+ countries and have been deployed in multiple languages.
The main objective of this platform is to build an overall resilient public health program by creating a continuous learning ecosystem that can adapt to new policies and respond to reforms, demographic changes, emerging disease patterns and unexpected emergencies. More specifically, this platform can be applied in emergency situations like the COVID-19 pandemic in the following ways:
1. Rapid emergency training and deployment of health and humanitarian workforce or volunteers
2. Measuring the spread of information e.g. how many people have seen, read, and understood the policies or changes
3. Improving the capacity and learning for adoption of new policies and technologies
4. Large scale learning for last mile workers
5. Knowledge management
6. Building patient and community knowledge and learning for adherence, and measuring results
7. South-south and peer-to-peer collaboration and engagement

RETS can help public health programs respond to emergencies, new policies, reforms, demographic changes and emerging disease patterns. It can be applied for emergency needs or for regular ongoing training of health workforce.
RETS’ approach combines real-time digital access to technical assistance via experts, and peer-to-peer collaboration and discussion. Users can access updated information, or request for information that can be provided by other peers, irrespective of geographical barriers. The other key feature of RETS is its ability to provide real-time measurement in improvement of knowledge, skills and attitude of the health workforce.
