Athens, or Open Athens, is a way of accessing online resources that the NHS has paid for, including Health Education England's e-Learning for Healthcare online training modules.
There are different types of accounts / access options depending upon eligibility criteria. If you are a healthcare student on a programme which involves practice and placement within NHS provider services, you are eligible for an NHS HEI Athens Login. Medical Imaging students at the University of Exeter are covered by this eligibility criteria.
The resources you can access with your NHS Athens login are listed below. Please note that University of Exeter students already have access to most of these resources (and many more) via the University library; please visit the Library Search / Database A - Z to access these.
The items in bold are the only resources that you can't already get access to via the University library.
Medical Imaging students can be sent login and password details via an email to their University account.
This is completely different to your University login and password which gives you access to the University's own collection of online medical resources.
To create an E-learning for Healthcare account using your Open Athens log-in details, choose the "Sign on with Open Athens" option at https://portal.e-lfh.org.uk/.
At the next screen, choose "I don't have an e-LfH account" and "Proceed to Next Step".
Use your university email address to create the account. When asked for your "job role", you can choose Radiographer - Student - Diagnostic (Students) from the drop-down list.
Once you have created an E-Learning for Healthcare account, you will need to enrol on the following modules:
