C4: Tools for Provider Staff Education

Provider staff education was improved through a partnership among hospitals, manufacturer, and county health department that developed a curriculum using multiple media methods. Another project that developed an online version of the TIDE (Teaching Immunization Delivery and Evaluation) program including CE credits is reviewed. A statistical evaluation and analysis of both strategies are presented.
Learning Objectives: Participants in this workshp will be able to describe two different provider staff education programs and the statistical evaluation of each in improving immunization knowledge.
