What equipment am I?

I’m a closed blood collection system that allows blood to flow straight into tubes without exposure to air. I reduce contamination, increase safety and accuracy, and support the pre-analytic phase — where up to 32 to 75 percent of testing errors occur.

A. Syringe system
B. Vacuum Tube System (VTS)
C. Butterfly without tubing
D. Open needle and syringe

We’ve taken what was entirely face-to-face and built multi-platform solutions around it.
Average user cost is now roughly tenfold lower for the same outcome.

Clinical or corporate, the truth hasn’t changed:
training design is the bridge between learning and doing.
When it’s built well, the results endure — and, with the VeinTrain simulator, the system sustains itself.

Learn Cannulation With VeinTrain

You can learn cannulation through a blended route:

Online Skills Lab – eVein
• One-year access
• Step-by-step videos
• Troubleshooting and complications
• Fits with national competency frameworks

QR-linked Video Support and adaptable content modules – iVein
• Scan the QR on your simulator
• Watch the skill as you practise
• Ideal for repetition and revision

Hands-on – VeinTrainer Kits
• Practise angle, depth, and hand position
• Reduce failed attempts on real patients
• Build confidence before and between shifts

Trainer Pathway And HALO Centres

For organisations, VeinTrain supports:
• Train the Trainer programmes
• Local cannulation champions
• Structured learning programmes (SLP)
• Centre accreditation and quality assurance

This helps services deliver safe cannulation at scale, while protecting patients and supporting staff.

Training effectiveness is shaped by how people make sense of learning and use it in their real context, not by what is simply delivered.

More practice. Better outcomes.

This is what happens when training is built around doing, not just watching.

With VeinTrain, learners don’t get a short window of exposure and then get sent back into practice hoping it sticks.
They practise again and again, in a structured way, with support.

The result?

Over 2,400 minutes of guided practice, compared to around 140 minutes using traditional methods.

That’s not a small difference. It changes confidence, skill, and patient experience.

It also eases pressure on supervisors.

Learners arrive at the bedside better prepared. Practice time is used well. Risk is reduced.

This isn’t about adding more content.
It’s about designing training that actually works in real clinical settings.

Practice matters.
And the system around it matters even more.

03/01/2026

Not all training needs the same depth.
That’s why VeinTrain offers three clear routes.

Rapid
Six core videos and a practical booklet.
A good starting point. No certificate.

Masterclass
Core lectures with local certification.
Ideal for structured learning and refresh.

HALO
Full VeinTrain certification.
Lectures, skills content, and technique refinement.
Built for safe practice and long-term confidence.

You can start where you are and progress when ready.
The pathway is clear. The standards stay high.

We used to say: everyone can become a VeinTrainer.

And that was true.
We taught on the assumption that those learning today would soon be supervising others, and that some would naturally step into formal trainer roles.

But the system has taught us something deeper.

Today, VeinTrain teaches everyone to lead.

Not everyone needs to become a trainer.
But everyone needs to understand responsibility, judgement, and standards.

This is why our language has evolved.

We now teach people to become Vein Guards.
• Some go on to become Guardians – role models who hold standards, support others, and model good practice.
• Others become Custodians – shaping practice across teams, services, and whole systems, influencing how work is done at scale.

This shift matters.

Because safe practice does not sit in policies or courses.
It lives in everyday decisions, peer challenge, and what people choose to uphold when no one is watching.

Training alone is not enough.
Capability without leadership does not travel.

By designing learning on the assumption that everyone leads at some point, we create systems that are safer, more consistent, and more resilient.

The real question is no longer:
Who is trained?

It is:
Who is prepared to hold the line?

👇 How do you see leadership showing up in everyday practice in your system?

The VeinTrain Pro 1 course is designed for learners who need a clear, structured introduction to venepuncture and cannulation.

It includes the essential theory, practical demonstrations and step-by-step guidance needed to build confidence safely. The online skills lab provides a full year of access, allowing learners to review techniques, troubleshooting and best practice whenever they need it.

Pro 1 is suitable for:
• New starters
• Staff returning to clinical roles
• Aesthetic practitioners
• Teams building a baseline level of competence

Learners complete the core modules at their own pace and receive a certificate on completion. Many organisations use Pro 1 as the entry point for their wider training pathway or to support induction programmes.

We built the eVein system to be future-proof—and adaptive for whatever comes next.

That’s why we’ve added microlearning into our Online Skills Lab and HALO video library. It’s not just easier to fit into busy lives—it actually helps people remember and apply what they’ve learned.

A major study (Judijanto, 2025) backs it:
• Supports memory with spaced repetition
• Makes learning more flexible
• Prepares us for next-gen tech like AI, VR, and gamified learning

Smart learning for now—and whatever’s next.

Many trainers tell us that offering consistent, high quality skills training can be challenging in busy services.
Staff rotate frequently, practice time is limited, and training often depends on individuals finding time around clinical pressures.

The HALO pathway is designed to support trainers with a clearer structure.

The online skills lab prepares learners before any live session, demonstrations stay consistent, and the overall process becomes easier to manage.

This allows trainers to focus on what matters most:

good interaction, judgement, and helping staff grow their confidence safely.

A more organised framework also spreads the learning across teams, rather than relying on one or two people to carry the full responsibility.

The HALO programme was developed to make training more reliable, more sustainable, and less dependent on individual capacity.
It supports busy services by providing a steady, repeatable structure that raises standards while reducing pressure.

For services looking to strengthen their training approach, the HALO pathway offers a practical, scalable solution.

Shaping Change: Leadership in Action

The VeinTrain HALO programme supports those leading transformation from within.

Whether they’re L&D managers, IV leads or system improvement champions,
our trainers shape change in ways that fit local cultures and priorities.

We provide more than tools.
We offer one-to-one support, rich group learning, and a proven system that does the heavy lifting.

One tally at Guy’s and St Thomas’?
13 staff in the room with nearly 300 years of experience between them.
That’s what we bring to transformation.

And now, that experience lives inside the HALO programme.

🌱 What would shift in your system with a Vein Leader at the heart of it?
