To date, there have been no published evaluations of trainings for emergency responders or trainings that target Deaf/HH people.
We plan to design a systematic, longitudinal evaluation of future trainings as we scale up this project.
Evaluations of eight trainings with integrative care students, nursing students, psychiatric rehabilitation practitioners and pharmacists are presented as well.
This finding is in line with the results of previous evaluations of leadership trainings not only in the medical field [ 16, 20, 30] but also in other emergency team fields [ 31, 32].
In June 2011, CDC conducted a preliminary follow-up evaluation of the Train-the-trainer course among master trainers to learn how it had contributed to subsequent trainings of CHWs.
Given the lack of evaluation of these types of trainings in the literature, a much more rigorous approach to assessing efficacy of the trainings is needed.
Educators can apply the methods demonstrated here to systematically use theory in the development, implementation, and evaluation of their workshops, staff trainings, and curricular materials for professionals and consumers.
Small-scale evaluations of in-service trainings in maternal care have limited power to demonstrate efficacy or effectiveness in changing provider knowledge and behavior, team function and maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Following the second evaluation, no trainings were offered and the only intervention was the offering of individualized feedback.
