Abstract

Education delivery in higher education institutions was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially for healthcare students whose continuing education is imperative to maintain a well-educated healthcare workforce. Emergency remote teaching, without prior contingency planning, was developed and adapted promptly for the circumstances. We investigated the effectiveness of alternative education delivery strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic to ensure medical, dental, nursing and pharmacy students acquired the relevant knowledge to become effective practitioners, able to translate learning into clinical practice, and how this informs either further planned education delivery or adaptations in emergencies.
