1. Lesson Learned: Using an already established infrastructure allows a program to get an early start and to do "value added" activities that enhance the project. |
|
How related to achievements: Provided long-term stability and way in to implement the project locally and to disseminate the project results locally and nationally. |
|
2. Lesson Learned: Self-instruction is a very cost-effective model for training rural health care providers; important to offer continuing education credit. |
|
How related to achievements: Most of the 5,000+ trainees were trained through the self-instruction method. |
|
3. Lesson Learned: Difficult to select an adequate control group from rural areas, even with incentives - must draw a much larger sample than indicated. |
|
How related to achievements: The evaluation results would be stronger with a larger control group. |
|
4. Lesson Learned: It is important to assure "buy-in" by multi-site project personnel for information dissemination and to provide support for papers and presentations. |
|
How related to achievements: Allowed for widespread dissemination of project and project results. |
| 5. Lesson Learned: Many rural health care providers are not currently accessing educational programs via the Internet. |
