Introducing HFL’s award-winning EYFS e-Learning Induction Programme

  • Introducing HFL’s award-winning EYFS e-Learning Induction Programme

HFL Education proudly presents the award winning EYFS e-Learning Induction Programme.

Our innovative EYFS four-part e-learning induction programme can help new and returning early years staff build the skills they need to be effective early years practitioners.

The EYFS e-Learning Induction Programme includes four modules of self-paced e-learning. Each module allows practitioners to explore their role in greater detail supporting their practice along the way with reflective tasks. Using a wide range of engaging learning styles, they can learn at their own pace in a way that suits them.



Our programme of short sessions is designed to build confidence, providing the underpinning knowledge and awareness of requirements in the EYFS to complement your setting’s own induction and probationary processes.

Here’s what practitioners had to say:

“This EYFS course is clear and giving you all the information what you must need when you work in early years settings. It is essential even if you start as a new employee or you would like to refresh everything.”
Brigitta Gulya, Early Years Educator

“The layout and material of the course was clear and concise. The course content includes various different ways of learning keeping it interesting. The use of the workbook helps to embed knowledge and reflect on own practice. Would be a great course for new staff members into the industry.”
