Transfusion courses

We're now offering even more opportunities for health professionals working in the area of transfusion to improve their knowledge of blood, various workplace settings and associated roles and responsibilities, to support safe transfusion practice.

These new microcredentials and microlearnings are designed to complement our annual education calendar of transfusion webinars and events which can be found at Transfusion Online Learning.

The role of a transfusion practitioner (TP) can apply to a number of different titles, including transfusion nurse consultants, patient blood management coordinators, and blood safety officers.

These microcredentials are ideal if you're new to transfusion - or looking to secure a role - and for existing health professionals who have identified gaps in their skills or knowledge. 

Each module is tailored to suit the needs of healthcare professionals in developing or improving knowledge in the transfusion practice setting.

Transfusion laboratory essentials

These microlearnings are for new scientists and laboratory staff on relevant topics to improve knowledge and add value to their roles.

These microlearnings are intended to complement your mandatory laboratory training programs

There'll be 12 self-paced and interactive modules in total, which we hope will offer an enjoyable way to learn and explore relevant topics.
