It is packed with interactive features such as video clips, animations and real-life case studies, to support your learning.

e-SRH is relevant to a wide range of healthcare professionals working in sexual health, general practice, obstetrics and gynaecology, including doctors, nurses, midwives, health visitors and pharmacists.

 

Convenient, easy online access

eSRH is available online so you can study in the workplace, at home or even on the move. The programme has been developed by the UK Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Healthcare (FSRH), part of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, and Health Education England e-Learning for Healthcare.

 

Do you work in sexual and reproductive healthcare outside the UK?

Alongside eSRH, the FSRH International Certificate of Knowledge in Sexual and Reproductive Health is a complementary programme specifically designed for healthcare professionals outside the UK.

This 12-month package includes:

  • access to award-winning online SRH content tailored to international audiences
  • an online assessment – with an FSRH certificate available on successful completion

------

eIntegrity programmes are developed by NHS Health Education England’s e-Learning for Healthcare programme (HEE e-LfH). 

The programmes are high quality self-directed learning programmes.  They are designed to support training and CPD and are excellent resources alongside other traditional teaching methodologies.  They have been developed by the UK NHS for use in the NHS.  However, many of the programmes have international relevance, particularly the specialty training programmes which are often mapped to UK specialty training curricula.
