A new online learning platform is being made available from Wednesday 14 June 2023 – giving all corporate users (who have an email address and access to a Council device) the ability to tap into a range of user-friendly, work-related resources.
Online courses will be available via the EDC Learning Hub – Moodle Workplace on subjects such as Diversity and Inclusion, Health and Safety, Information and Security, Mental Health and Wellbeing, and Workplace Skills.
More will be added on a regular basis – aimed at employees of all grades.
Each course will provide bite-sized chunks of information and is designed to be completed within an average of 20 minutes.
Corporate users will be able to work through e-learning courses online and, on completion, will be awarded a course badge to form part of their training record.
The system is designed to be flexible, giving colleagues the chance to achieve allocated and development training goals at their own pace.
Managers will be able to gauge employee e-learning course work progress individually and as a department.
Employees who are accessing training courses should liaise with their line manager in advance to discuss training needs in line with PDR conversations and service needs.
Following the launch on 14 June, your account will be activated and you can log on via the icon in EDC Apps. On the log-in page, click on the Microsoft logo to log in. If not logged in already, you will be prompted to enter your work email address and Windows password (the password which you are prompted to change every 35 days).
Work is ongoing as regards access to learning materials for employees who do not have email addresses and/or direct access to a Council device.
The EDC Moodle Learning Hub replaces the former platform Brightwaves, previously provided by Clyde Valley Learning Development Group.
If you have any questions about the EDC Learning Hub, please contact peopledevelopment@eastdunbarton.gov.uk
Thank you
