Welcome to the Handsam eTraining Centre

Easy to set up, simple to use

From one course to unlimited learning - build a portfolio that works for you

Introducing the eTraining Centre and Training Log

Handsam eTraining empowers staff with flexible, accessible, and expert-led online training through a comprehensive catalogue of over 45 courses tailored to support compliance, professional development, and best practice across education and care settings.

Whether you're refreshing your knowledge or exploring new topics, the platform makes it easy to stay informed, confident, and compliant—anytime, anywhere.

Complementing this, Handsam’s intuitive Training Log simplifies the management of staff CPD by allowing users to track completed training, store certificates and qualifications, run detailed reports, and set reminders for refresher courses—all in one place.

The system is effortless to set up and intuitive to use, designed with both administrators and staff in mind. Getting started takes just two simple steps: share your staff list with email addresses and job roles, and we’ll set up your organisation on Training Log; then, your training administrator can easily allocate modules using our user-friendly tool.

From there, you're ready to go—organised, compliant, and fully supported in your continuous professional development journey.
