Presentation Outline

The Training Process Goal of training Understanding the process of transferring skills Setting the stage

Tools Developing a training plan Creating a training matrix Measuring competency Tracking training completion

3

Training: An Ongoing Process

THE GOAL

Competency on Performance

4

Transferring Skills Process

Feedback System

Trainer

Trainee

5

Transferring the Skills

The Trainer: Plans the training Identifies subject matter experts Develops written reference materials

(& updates) Implements a Model-Practice-Feedback system Tracks overall training completion Needs Patience!

6

Applying the Skills

The Trainee: Knowledge transfer and ownership

Develops local SOPs Practices

Role play Audio-recordings Standardized participant walk-through

Performance Applies knowledge in real time

7

Feedback Systems

Feedback System: Triggers needs for improvement

Questions from the sites Quality of data QA findings

Reminders Coach staff along Listen behind the questions Identify communication barriers/ use of other venues Timing of information: relevance impacts learning Patience !!!

Setting the Stage

9

10

Getting Started

Obtain comprehensive protocol knowledge Work as a team during development phase

Create a training team Hold regular development meetings Determine preliminary modules Identify presenters

Designate one person from the LT to Oversee and coordinate the training development plan Execute and follow-up on tasks Maintain training system at a Lead Team level

11

Getting Going

Heavy Front-load work Develop training plan *

Develop staff training requirements matrix * Develop manual of operations & procedures

(MOP) Identify & coordinate presenters Develop training timeline

great deal of coordination Develop & maintain training completion log *

for training verification

12

Structure should be solid from inception Training Plan Training Matrix

Common repository for information E.g., Livelink Access to tools and training resources enables

independence

Keep in Mind

13

Training Tools

13

14

Defining Terms

Importance of defining terms in the training plan

Common understanding of words Acronym mania

15

Training Plan—Answers what?

Protocol Dictates Training Requirements The training plan must answer:

Who are you training? What are the required training topics? Who is responsible for delivering training? How/Who is assuring competency? How is training completion documented? How/Who is tracking training completion? How/Who trains incoming staff members?

?

16

What Guides a Training Plan

Protocol Dictates Training Requirements Broad procedural plans

Manual of Operations & Procedures (MOP) Outlines specific step-by-step study procedures Guides protocol-specific training needs Importance of versions and change logs

Should trigger training needs Appendices

Address refreshers Reduce MOP versions

17

Developing a Training Plan

Training Plan Outline Introduction Outline of required trainings

Local Protocol Specific

Training Matrix Measuring competency Proof of completion Staff Training Tracking System Training of new/incoming staff

18

Training Plan—Staff Roles

Develop List of Site Staff Roles(template suggestion)

Define role responsibility of each site staff (CTN) Site Principal Investigator (PI) Site Study Coordinator (SC) Site Research Assistant (RA) Site Interventionist/counselor Site nurse, physician, etc Other (e.g., receptionist?)

Define role responsibility of each node staff University PI Node Quality Assurance (QA) monitor

19

Training Plan—Type of Trainings

Type of Training RequirementsLocal Training

Local IRB requirements Required of all study staff in order to conduct quality

research with human subjects (HSP) (GCP) Must issue a certificate

Other (e.g., Universal Precautions)Protocol Specific

Introductory Pre-training National Training/Investigator Meeting Post training

20

Training Plan Who is Responsible…?

…for training delivery? Local Training Site Protocol Specific Training Lead Team

…for ensuring staff is properly trained? PI Affirms staff qualifications SC Coordinates & documents training completion QA Monitors & verifies completion

20

21

Training PlanLocal Training

Sites must be in compliance with their local IRB requirements

Lead Team or Node may provide acceptable options for obtaining local training requirements Human Subjects Protection (HSP) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Universal Precautions, etc.

Training Plan should provide a general description of each local training requirements module

Training Plan specifies required evidence of completion RTS: keeper of regulatory evidence (HSP, CV, License)

27

Training Matrix

Lists Training Modules Local Protocol Specific Training

Pre-training National Training Post-training

Specifies training requirements for each study staff role

Lists presenters, date, time, length

28

Creating a Training Matrix

Sharing a Training Matrix (sample)Use of colorsNumbering modulesDefinition of symbols (R,S,O)

R= Required, S= Suggested, O= OptionalVersion control

Some dates may be TBD Ability to add modules for post-training

Common repository, (e.g., Livelink) current version

Delivering Training

Local Trainings Sites are responsible

Pre-Training Webinars Conference Calls/PPT

presentations, videos Release of MOP

National Trainings PowerPoint presentations Use of audience device

(interactive/assess) Suggestions/Questions Box Hands on

Options for Measuring Competency

Devices for general sessions Immediate audience comprehension feedback (polls)

Allows presenter to correct information on the spot Individualize comprehension assessment

Checklists, observations, write-evaluation for specific intervention training

Quizzes after presentations Quizzes based on MOP (survey monkey?) Randomized Participant walkthrough PI & SC role in supervision (honor system) QA monitor verification What options

work for you?
