  28. Developing ALERT™ Faculty Nicky Sayer ALERT™ Course Lead

  29. Overview • Applicable to all courses • What faculty is needed • Who to target • Train the Trainer Course versus developing your own faculty

  30. What faculty is needed • A Course Facilitator - ALERT™ Train the Trainer Course or - a Resuscitation Council Instructor or - a senior clinician with a recognised teaching qualification • A Course Administrator

  31. What faculty is needed • Core faculty to deliver sessions, participate in the demo and scenario’s • Core Faculty must: • be credible educators with acute clinical experience • have skills in delivering lectures, facilitating workshops and running scenarios

  32. Who to target to teach • Critical Care Outreach clinicians with known teaching experience • Experienced healthcare professionals from an acute background with known teaching experience • Practice Educators

  33. Who to target to teach • Resuscitation Officers • Resuscitation Council (UK) ALS/ILS/GIC Instructors • ALERT™ candidates who have attended an ALERT™ Train the Trainer Course

  34. Train the Trainer Course • Updated in February 2013 • Aimed at ALERT™ candidates who do not have experience of teaching or a teaching qualification • Two centers Portsmouth and North Lincolnshire

  35. Train the Trainer Course Programme

  36. Developing faculty who don’t need ALERT™ TTT Course • Attend or observe an ALERT™ Course • Ensure they have a manual and access to the teaching materials pre-course • Support from the Course Facilitator for teaching experience as required • Feedback using the Lecture and Scenario Evaluation forms from Train the Trainer Course

  37. ALERT™ Lecture and Scenario Evaluation Forms

  38. Developing your own faculty • Enter them onto the ALERT Local Faculty Database • Will get a certificate • Transferable between Trusts • This evidence can be used for annual appraisals

  43. Ideas to be explored • Pre & Post Course MCQ • Video option for the Faculty Demo • Less lectures and develop the sessions to be more workshop and scenario based • Increased options for introducing local policies, documents, case studies etc.

  44. Ideas to be explored • Sepsis • Airway as a skill station • More scenarios - basic in the morning and more advanced in the afternoon • More scenarios to chose from (AAA, Tracheostomy, HAP, Chest Pain)

  45. Ideas to be explored • Able to tailor-make scenarios to candidates role/speciality • More complex scenarios for medical staff • Acute Kidney Injury • More Human Factors

  46. Ideas to be explored • Assessment scenario with MCQ so Pass/Fail option for centres • Teaching materials on the website • Recert Course option – half day
