Agenda • ACC and CECity Overview • Lifelong Learning & Learning Portfolio • Concepts • What, Why & How • A Vision In Practice • Partnerships, Technology, and Standards • Implementation • Demonstration • Challenges & Benefits • Questions/Comments
ACC Overview • The mission of the American College of Cardiology is to advocate for quality cardiovascular care—through education, research promotion, development and application of standards and guidelines—and to influence health care policy • Founded 1949 • 37,000+ Members
CECity Overview • CECity is the world’s leading SaaS (Software as a Service) provider of online healthcare education, outcomes, and performance improvement technologies & distribution networks • Experienced Management Team • Broad healthcare, CME, association, pharmacy, managed care, performance assessment & improvement, six sigma, and technology experience • CECity is not a Content Provider • No Content Creation • No Content Accreditation • CECity is not a web destination • Technology is branded and focused on our partner not CECity
Business Case • No single system could provide the member, or ACC, with a complete picture of the member’s education activities • No linkage between education, competencies, certification, quality, outcomes, and reimbursement opportunities (P4P) • Not leveraging ACC data products, like NCDR™, as part of overall performance improvement strategy • External Influences – Emphasis On Competency, Quality Performance And Patient-centered Care
The Concept • Provide a Lifelong Learning Portfolio to ACC Members • From Fellowship to Emeritus (F2E) • Deliver seamless access for members to multiple products (ACC and non-ACC) across multiple systems • Integrate with the new Cardiosource.org site launching in June 2010 • Meld Practice & Quality Improvement With Educational Content • Utilizes Data That Are Trusted By The Learner • Links Learners To Competency-based Curricula To Assess Individual & Peer Competence, Gaps & Performance • Provides Awareness For The Lifelong Learner • Facilitate The Ability To Engage Lifelong Learning • Support Certification & Licensure • Easy access to products that offer MOC and MOL
Providing Context To A Vision Lifelong Learning
How Level 5: Industry and standards. Inter- operability, cross-institution sharing Level 5 provides health and sustainability to the industry Level 4: Integrated. Portfolios are integrated into the process of instruction and assessment Levels 3 & 4 provide value for the institution and faculty Level 3: Institution-sponsored Level 2: Dynamic, database driven. Central artifact pool is used to create different representations based on learner need Levels 1 & 2 provide the greatest value for the learner Level 1: Simple website, blogs, wikis Siemens, G. (2004). Stages of eportfolio development. Retrieved October 16, 2009 from http://www.elearnspace.org/Articles/eportfolios.htm
A Vision In Practice • Past • Present • Future Level 5 Level 4 Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 Mid 90’s to Present
Level 5 Level 4 Level 3 2001-2007 Level 2 Level 1
Level 5 Level 4 2009 Level 3 Level 2 Level 1
Level 5 2011 and Beyond Level 4 Level 3 Level 2 Level 1
