Build a program that works by asking these 10 questions from the beginning.
An online platform for community health worker training can not only save your organization money over live training costs, but it can also increase worker engagement. Make sure before you move forward with a plan that you’re choosing the right format.
When you’re considering online training, the two chief delivery systems are a computer-based e-learning program on a learning management system (LMS) or a virtual meeting or seminar (aka webinar). The Community Health Worker Online Training Program is a hybrid program. It’s a mix of an e-learning program on an LMS and in-person training.
If you’re considering offering CHW training that includes an online element, this matrix might help you find the best tool for the job.
