NEXUS Level 3 - Practitioner in Non-Technical Skills

NEXUS - Human Factors Training exposes candidates to the professional and personal teachings of Human Factors Training that have developed throughout the last 40 years, predominantly within the aviation industry. Human Factors training is an umbrella term for the study of people’s performance in their work and non-work environments with a primary focus to improve safety and efficiency by reducing and managing human error by individuals and organisations.

The NEXUS course aims to address the current training deficiency in Human Factors and Non-Technical Skills (NTS) that exist across Healthcare. These unique sessions will provide participants with the knowledge and skills which have become so deeply integrated into other industries with a primary focus to improve patient safety by minimising human error, promoting teamwork, developing leadership and improving workplace satisfaction in all areas of health service operations.

The NEXUS Course consists of three levels comprising of three units each. Participants will complete a total of nine core units as a foundation for the continued development of Non-Technical Skills / Human Factors training in the healthcare environment.

Each unit and level is designed to build upon the previous, gathering the skills and tools to participate in practical sessions which assist in the translation of concepts to the work environment.
