CLINICAL EDUCATION<br />

& TRAINING INSTITUTE<br />

Building Capacity and Governance<br />

Participants were asked to consider opportunities to build capacity for education and training of<br />

staff in LHD and Specialty Networks. Participants identified a number of key elements to support<br />

such work:<br />

Resources<br />

• Stocktake of resources -What do we have? How do we use it?<br />

• Identifying and using existing resources and networks (e.g. professional bodies, universities)<br />

• Avoiding duplication -modify existing resources<br />

• Harnessing teleconferencing and simulation resources<br />

Collaboration between LHDs and stakeholders<br />

• Providing access to resources (common website/platform to store and share resources and<br />

minimize duplication, share success stories of business cases where resource funding was<br />

obtained, set standards around intellectual property so materials can be shared)<br />

• Consistency of mandatory training and access to records across LHDs and Speciality Networks<br />

• Utilisation of existing networks to promote and support interdisciplinary research<br />

• Improving utilisation of IT (e.g. CIAP, webcasting, support and access)<br />

• Linking with universities and TAFE<br />

Student education<br />

• Better collaboration between universities and <strong>NSW</strong> Health to improve the experience for<br />

students on placement<br />

• University funding for placements could lead to protected teaching time<br />

• Identifying opportunities for conjoint appointments/funded educator positions with universities<br />

to support student clinical placements<br />

Management support<br />

• Collaboration with CETI and other sectors inside/outside of <strong>NSW</strong> Health to advocate for the<br />

needs of allied health<br />

• Development of best practice tools to support education and training<br />

• Improving local governance standards (e.g. CPD as a standing agenda item at team meetings)<br />

Develop culture of lifelong learning<br />

• Promoting importance of contributing to CPD<br />

• Developing educational skills of clinical staff<br />

• Facilitating efficient transfer of information and shared learning between practitioners<br />

• Harnessing informal education (e.g. email chat groups, communities of practice, sharing via<br />

social media)<br />

Educator support<br />

• Opportunities to further develop skills and qualifications (e.g. Graduate Certificate in Adult<br />

Education)<br />

• Protected time for their own education needs<br />
