Abstract

At the University of Wollongong those responsible for workplace health and safety (WHS) understand the challenges involved in securing staff and student engagement when health and safety practices and induction efforts are widely seen as tedious. The primary aim of this project was to get staff and students to a WHS threshold using a hybrid learning methodology that made the best use of face-to-face time. All learners covered the requisite knowledge and skills beforehand via an online module, including a 'hurdle' assessment that ensured they had met the minimum and threshold learning outcomes.
