MCSP aimed to develop a better-prepared midwifery and nursing workforce, equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively provide HIV, malaria, nutrition, family planning, and maternal, newborn, and child health services. To advance these pre-service education (PSE) goals, MCSP collaborated with Ministry of Health (MOH) to implement the following eLearning activities from August 2014 to March 2019:

• Established and built the capacity of the first eLearning Secretariat within the MOH to govern and manage eLearning activities.
• Developed a methodology and built the capacity of HTI faculty and information technology (IT) tutors to implement eLearning and create standardized eLearning modules.
• In collaboration with faculty and local partners, created and deployed eLearning to 31 nursing and midwifery HTIs (out of an estimated7 0 total schools¹) in the 10 regions of Ghana.
