Mandatory training often comes with many challenges, one of these being low engagement. Staff may click through modules without appropriately absorbing and retaining the learning, which may reinforce negative views of mandatory training. Doing this over and over again can become a vicious cycle. So, how can we promote engagement with mandatory training? In our Guide to Mandatory Training, Zoe Youl highlights 8 strategies in depth, including explanations and impacts of the implementation of these strategies. Below is a snippet of 3 strategies you could readily use within your organisation! #MandatoryTraining #Education #Healthcare #Ausmed

What does success look like for your organisation? How can we measure this success? What are the best ways to present these measures? These are some of the questions you need to really think about when determining the correct metrics to track when working in healthcare education. In the final installment of the "Metrics that Matter" series, Kath Sharples highlights how traditional metrics like survey data don't capture the true impact of professional development. Instead, we must focus on metrics that link lifelong learning to quality care. #HealthcareEducation #ProfessionalDevelopment #QualityImprovement #WorkforceDevelopment #Ausmed

In many instances, when new standards or regulatory frameworks are introduced, requirements are listed that lack background, accompanying material, or guidance on implementation. These requirements are important but often leave providers without the necessary support to implement them. Action 2.9.5 is certainly one of those instances. Action 2.9.5 mandates that "providers regularly review and improve the effectiveness of their training systems". Zoe Youl breaks down and simplifies this requirement (including the use of a validated evaluation model) in the following content piece: https://lnkd.in/gekEZJ26

This week, we recognise and celebrate NAIDOC Week (7-14 July) 🖤💛❤️ — a chance for all Australians to learn more about the rich history and culture of First Nations people.
