For such training to be effective in dealing with a professional approach to 21st century health challenges, this kind of training context needs to be replicated in the professional work place.LEARNING - Learning principles need to embrace life-long, self-directed learning seeking new knowledge and aiming to improve performance in a changing, complex and multi-faceted health environment.WORKSHOP RESULTS - Participants in the three day workshop nominated networking, teamwork, monitoring and evaluation as the priority learning areas.TIMEFRAMES - While seminar series content can be developed in the short term and implemented in 6–12 months, the development of a formal learning curriculum will require a longer period and adequate investment of resources. However, it would be helpful, if in implementing a seminar series, a policy decision is taken that the content will subsequently develop into a formal curriculum so that the seminar series development is informed by that intention. | Publication Type: | Report | Publisher: | Ministry of Public Health & National Health Security Office, Thailand | Place of Publication: | Thailand | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 111799 Public Health and Health Services not elsewhere classified | HERDC Category Description: | R1 Report |
