Workshop Agenda

SCALING UP BEST PRACTICES IN COMMUNITY-BASED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION1

A Public Workshop of the Global Forum on
Innovation in Health Professional Education
May 1–2, 2014

The Keck Center of the National Academies
Washington, DC 20001

DAY 1: MAY 1, 2014

Workshop Objectives:
  • To provide a framework for a common understanding of the responsibilities of health professions, institutions, and students to the communities they serve.
  • To explore how common terminology is interpreted within various community health settings: What is community, diversity, social accountability, ethnicity, culture, and equity? Who are the health workers and health providers?
  • To identify and discuss competencies needed to engage with communities for improving health and health outcomes: What knowledge, attitudes, and skill sets are needed? How might these be imparted through learning? Where along the pipeline from education to practice should efforts be concentrated?

_____________

1 There are many opinions on what constitutes “community-based” health professional education (HPE). For the purposes of this workshop, community-based HPE includes education and training that takes place anywhere outside of the hospital setting (e.g., health clinics, churches, schools, health departments, and government offices).

  • To identify gaps and best practices in scaling up community-based experiential learning using incentives and tools such as payment structures, accreditation/licensure/certification, policy, tracking, and social accountability.
  • To explore a wide variety of models of community-based health professional education.

- Admission Versus Training (Rick Kellerman and Sarita Verma)
Voting Proposition: Nature versus nurture: Health profession educational institutions should place more emphasis on admissions than in training specific competencies during the educational program.

- Longitudinal Versus Block (Lucinda Maine and Holly Wise)
Voting Proposition: Health professions education of the future should promote the use of longitudinal clinical education experiences to the advantage of patients, learners, sites, and academic programs.

- Virtual Versus Real (Pam Jeffries and Eric Holmboe) Voting Proposition: A priority in the development of health professions education should be development of robust simulations that can train and assess the variety and complexity of behaviors necessary to implement the Triple Aim.
