Delivering system-wide Learning Disability & Autism training at pace

20 May 2025

The Challenge:

Traditional rollout of Oliver McGowan training could take up to five years to complete in our region.

Our Approach:</h2

  • Recognising the need for this important training, Coventry & Warwickshire Training Hub’s Medical Education Team worked with third-sector expert partners to design and deliver a Learning Disability and Autism training programme that could be delivered within six months.
  • By designing and delivering the training in a hybrid format, we maximised accessibility for colleagues across Coventry and Warwickshire. The training was funded by CW ICB.

Outcomes:

  • By adopting this tailored programme, we have educated over 3000 colleagues to a CQC standard.
  • Feedback has been very positive.
  • In response to the Learning Disability training:
    • 85% said they learned something.
    • 66% said practice will change as a result.
    • 98% found the session relevant to their work.
  • In response to the Autism training:
    • 82% said they learned something.
    • 60% said practice will change as a result
