C03 - Interactive Learning Groups: Innovative Enhancements of Competency-based Training for Collaborative Care Managers in VHA Integrated Primary Care
Description

Since 2017, more than 4500 healthcare professionals have been trained in Integrated Primary Care (IPC) through the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) national Competency-based Training (CT). This presentation will focus on recent innovations and enhancements to CT featuring the addition of eight interactive learning groups. Learning groups were designed to augment previously asynchronous, independent-study content, tailoring training for collaborative care managers in response to needs identified by leaders and trainers in IPC. We will discuss selection methods for learning group content and format, and present participant knowledge and satisfaction data. Our target audience includes those interested in methods for training integrated healthcare team members for high fidelity, collaborative practice, and attendees will learn about content relevant to the training of collaborative care managers specifically as well as the process for tailoring and enhancing training materials more broadly.
