Blended Clinical Training (BCT)Improving Quality of HIV Diagnostics and Treatment ServicesJuly 2018 to March 2021 : Supported by Global Fund5 March, 2019: CCM Meeting, New Delhi
What is Blended Training • It is an approach to training that combines traditional place-based classroom trainings with access to online educational materials. • It also provides opportunities for continued interaction with the participants. • It also involves field visits to various facilities for onsite learnings. Why Blended Training • Targets to train : 8000+ doctors (1200 ART Mos, 1620 ARTC specialists, 1108 LAC MOs, 4400 ICTC MOs) by next year. • Traditional place-based trainings ideal but may not practical as : • ♦ guidelines revised recently ♦ staff to be trained quickly ♦ extremely limited resources
Why Blended Training • Traditional ART MO induction training of 12 days - not done in recent past due to reasons such as • funding constraints • high turnover of MOs (more frequent trainings needed) • shrinking pool of trained resource persons (inadequate to meet the training requirements) • disruption of patient care at the ART centers for 12 days (esp. in high load ARTC, single MO ARTC). • Well balanced blended training package gives an opportunity to utilize newer modalities of the trainings without compromising expected training outcomes • On-line training platform : interactive knowledge-based sessions (MOs can learn while working at ARTC) • Class-room training : can focus on practice and attitude of trainees
GOAL OBJECTIVES • Develop content - compliant with national technical and operational guidelines • Build knowledge and skills - participatory adult learning pedagogies • Institutionalise mechanisms – • Knowledge management • Learning needs assessment • Training scheduling and delivery • Tracking participant progress & refresher/mentorship needs • Build practice-related competencies - providing stigma-free and high quality HIV services • Build competencies - quality documentation and reporting - centralized information systems Supporting NACP - building capacities and skills - ICTC, ART, Lab Services - staff • Enable accurate diagnosis, high quality care and treatment of PLHIV • Ensure quality documentation and reporting of services
An e-learning platform - self-paced learning (Needs assessment, Induction, refresher, regular updates) • HR information (Learning Information system –Staff of ICTC/ART/LS, trainings, trainees, learning assessment scores, staff turnover) • A repository of learning materials and guidelines • Communities of Practice (CoP)(e-forum for cross learning and bulletin board) Blended Clinical Training • ♦ TOTs ♦ Induction ♦ Supportive Monitoring Visit / Onsite mentoring (SMV) ♦ Refresher** ** as per requirement and budget availability
Mentoring : Certification : CME credits On-site Mentoring : • Supporting Monitoring Visits (SMV) • 2% of all trainees • assess post-training practices • offer support as needed • identify additional points for inclusion in future trainings • CME credits • Extension of learning to private sector HIV physicians and certification
