The ability to use new technologies is becoming as important as reading and writing. Organisations who do not embrace new technologies such as the internet are likely to become increasingly economically and socially isolated.   SCIE new report Get connected to e-learning provides practical advice for small and medium-sized social care organisations on making the most of new technology.

The resource focuses on learning via the internet, often called online learning. It provides guidance on the strengths and weaknesses of e-learning, staff training and development, how to recognise good e-learning and, importantly, where to find free e-learning.
