Health and Social Care Training and Education Academy

Adult Healthcare

Telford College is working in partnership with Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin Integrated Care System to offer a range of education and training courses to employees across the system.

Telford College boasts impressive industry standard facilities including two four-bedded hospital bays, a maternity room and a social care space all fully equipped with mock kitchens and bathrooms to create a safe learning environment. There are a range of interactive manikins and teaching staff with a breadth of industry experience.

We aim to use simulation and technology to recreate the real-life environment using virtual reality headsets and simulated areas. We also have a mobile teaching unit which can be used around the county and allows us to take learning to settings.

Mobile Training UNIT (MTU)

Our Mobile Training Unit (MTU), developed with The Marches Education Partnership, is our state-of-the-art vehicle, which delivers technology-led and practical training across the Marches area.

It is equipped with virtual reality headsets, simulated at-work training facilities, an immersive cave, and other training software which is being developed specifically for the partnership.
