[Training quality and quality training].

Abstract

There is a growing need for all organizations to carry out in-house training based on concrete strategies to be able to face the risks involved in the working context. The area that is most in need of this training is the building sector as it has always been penalized by the poor qualification and cultural levels of its operators, which are among the lowest in the working world. The need to determine in-house training which meets this requirement calls for a particularly effective practical and methodological approach. To achieve this aim, not only is it important that the training programme and the trainers fulfil the requirements of the Legislator, but they must also aim at both improving the technical quality and increasing the qualifications and cultural growth of the human resources. The purpose of this contribution is to advance a correct methodological approach aimed at training quality and quality training.

North-South exchange and professional development: experience from Mali and France.

BACKGROUND: Developing countries are facing the challenge of developing a family practice culture in a context in which clinical practice remains strongly associated with hospital practice. To what extent can professional exchange between GPs from North and South fuel novel professional identities in family practice? OBJECTIVES: Assess to what extent a North-South professional exchange programme involving rural GPs from Mali and France affected practice development and professional identity formation of Malian GPs. METHODS: Qualitative analysis of 19 exchanges between rural GPs from Mali and France based on (i) interviews; (ii) retrospective report analysis; (iii) field observation of three exchanges; (iv) workshop with Malian GPs; and (v) workshop with French GPs. RESULTS: Malian GPs reported increased self-esteem, increased concern for doctor-patient communication and innovations in practice organization. Although Malian participants considered a transfer from France's general practice irrelevant, the experience was thought provoking. The interpersonal and professional interaction was crucial. The Malian Rural Doctors Association provided a platform to capitalize on individual experiences in a process of collective professional identity construction. Costs of the programme were kept low, limiting possible side expectations of participants. CONCLUSIONS: North-South professional exchange can contribute to professional development. Exchange programmes should be designed as mutual learning processes, rather than unilateral assistance or transfer of practice models. Southern family practitioners are likely to improve primary care to individuals and families, while Northern GPs can draw lessons from the community perspective of primary health care in the South. Recruitment and preparation of participants are crucial, as well as collective reflection upon return.

Chapter 25: Education, training, and communication for HPV vaccines.

As human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines come to market, they will face education and training challenges similar to those of other new vaccines, along with HPV-specific issues. Recent studies document stark knowledge gaps about HPV at all levels--among policy makers, healthcare providers, parents, and teens--in both the industrialized and developing worlds. Pharmaceutical companies, public health advocates, medical trainers, and health educators need to understand their diverse audiences and respond appropriately to the needs of each. They also must use research-based communication strategies and materials to most effectively, and accurately, convey the need for an HPV vaccine and to manage expectations about how the vaccine can, and cannot, protect women and men.
