B03 - Innovative Products to Enhance Training of Healthcare Professionals in Integrated Primary Care: A Panel Discussion
Description

The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) launched a national Competency-based Training (CT) for VHA Integrated Primary Care (IPC) healthcare professionals in 2017. Since that time, more than 4500 healthcare professionals have been trained via this multi-phase CT comprised of self-directed learning, face-to-face training, and role-play skills demonstration utilizing a train the trainer model. Recently, innovative products have been designed and added to the CT to enhance training experiences of participants and trainers. This panel discussion will provide an overview and demonstration of key innovations (e.g., a metaphor to simplify complex topics, videos, and training tools) with ample time to dive deeper into the innovations during panel discussion in response to audience questions. Our target audience is those interested in innovative methods to engage participants and maximize training of integrated healthcare team members, and attendees will have the opportunity to learn about and actively discuss innovative products to enhance IPC trainings.
