Abstract

This paper reports the evaluation by trainees of the innovative online education initiative known as the e-TRIGGER (e-TRaining In Gerontology and Geriatrics) program, which targets healthcare professionals working with older adults in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe (AFMEE course) and in Asia-Oceania (ASIO). The e-TRIGGER programs are implemented under the auspices of the International Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics (IAGG). The first year of teaching of the AFMEE program (May 2023 to April 2024) and the third year of the ASIO program (January to December 2024) were evaluated by the students using a satisfaction survey implemented at the end of the year of teaching. Almost all trainees reported that the course met their personal objectives. A significant majority reported applying acquired knowledge directly (AFMEE, 75 %; ASIO, 78 %) and indirectly (AFMEE, 30 %; ASIO, 42 %) in their daily work. Over half reported improved skills in caring for older adults (AFMEE 65 %, ASIO 52 %). Around one-fifth reported a job or career promotion after course completion (AFMEE 21 %, ASIO 17 %). The evaluation highlights the significant impact and success of the e-TRIGGER program for most alumni. Key challenges of this innovative teaching program include ensuring financial sustainability and addressing specific training needs related to long-term care, dementia management, and technology integration. Future perspectives include expanding the program to Latin America (IAGG e-TRIGGER LATAM) and developing complementary, specialized short courses on specific areas of geriatric medicine and gerontology.
评估两个时区的在线培训,以改变老年人的护理
本文报告了学员对被称为e-TRIGGER(老年学和老年病学电子培训)计划的创新在线教育倡议的评估,该计划的目标是在非洲、中东和欧洲(AFMEE课程)以及亚洲-大洋洲(ASIO)与老年人一起工作的医疗保健专业人员。e-TRIGGER计划是在国际老年学和老年病学协会(IAGG)的主持下实施的。在AFMEE项目的第一年(2023年5月至2024年4月)和ASIO项目的第三年(2024年1月至12月)的教学结束时,学生通过满意度调查进行评估。几乎所有的学员都报告说,课程达到了他们的个人目标。绝大多数报告直接应用获得的知识(AFMEE, 75%;ASIO, 78%)和间接(AFMEE, 30%;ASIO, 42%)。超过一半的人报告了老年人护理技能的提高(AFMEE 65%, ASIO 52%)。大约五分之一的人在完成课程后获得了工作或职业晋升(AFMEE 21%, ASIO 17%)。评估突出了e-TRIGGER项目对大多数校友的重大影响和成功。这一创新教学计划的主要挑战包括确保财务可持续性,解决与长期护理、痴呆症管理和技术整合相关的特定培训需求。未来的前景包括将该计划扩展到拉丁美洲(IAGG - trigger LATAM),并在老年医学和老年学的特定领域开发互补的专业短期课程。

期刊介绍: Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics provides a medium for the publication of papers from the fields of experimental gerontology and clinical and social geriatrics. The principal aim of the journal is to facilitate the exchange of information between specialists in these three fields of gerontological research. Experimental papers dealing with the basic mechanisms of aging at molecular, cellular, tissue or organ levels will be published. Clinical papers will be accepted if they provide sufficiently new information or are of fundamental importance for the knowledge of human aging. Purely descriptive clinical papers will be accepted only if the results permit further interpretation. Papers dealing with anti-aging pharmacological preparations in humans are welcome. Papers on the social aspects of geriatrics will be accepted if they are of general interest regarding the epidemiology of aging and the efficiency and working methods of the social organizations for the health care of the elderly.
