Integrating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Concepts into Simulation Pre-briefing and Debriefing (WA-11)
Tuesday, April 4, 2023, 1:00PM - 2:30PM CDT
Workshop Registration Fee is $50 for all annual meeting registrants
Workshop Registration Fee is $100 for non-registrants of the annual meeting
Simulation-based methodologies are entrenched in healthcare continuing professional development providing a safe space to practice and grow as professionals. In recent years concepts of diversity, equity and inclusivity (DEI) have come to the forefront of health professions education and simulation educators have taken up the call, yet many are unsure how to incorporate them into their simulation practice. In 2021, the International Nursing Association of Clinical Simulation and Learning published the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice. Using these standards as a guide, simulation educators from all health professions can improve their practice through the intentional incorporation of DEI concepts.
Workshop participants will receive a short presentation on the Healthcare Simulation Standards of Best Practice in Pre-briefing and Debriefing followed by an introduction to concepts of DEI. Participants will then reflect on the simulation practice in their local contexts along with what DEI concepts are most applicable to them when conducting a pre-brief and debrief through a needs assessment. Following the self-reflective exercise, two frameworks will be presented to guide the intentional incorporation of DEI concepts into their simulation-based education: Pre-briefing for Cultural Humility (Foronda et al., 2022) and Debriefing for Cultural Humility (Foronda, 2021). Moving into small group work, participants will use the two frameworks along with the Standards to develop a script to use in their home institution.

How to Design and Implement International Educational Programs (WA-01)
Tuesday, April 11, 2023, 11:00AM - 12:30PM Central Time
International collaborative programs in CME/CPD are of interest for many North American institutions. However, they pose different types of challenges, in terms of organizational structure, educational design, accreditation, convening, evaluation and sources of funding, but also in the need to address cultural and language barriers to be successful. The longitudinal programs among the workshop facilitators’ institutions (Cleveland Clinic and Evi-Med) offer a sequential, mostly asynchronous curriculum, delivered to large audiences in their native languages. An active learning experience is provided through social interaction and reflection, using social learning analytics algorithms like the ones used by social networking applications (LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.) as well as friendsourcing (Facebook) and crowdsourcing (Netflix, Amazon). Participants will learn more about the type of international programs to be used as examples in pre-reading materials. During the live session, didactic presentations describe the specific joint experiences of the facilitators, followed by breakout sessions where participants can reflect on how to implement similar programs at their own institutions, and a plenary session to summarize results afterwards. A follow-up asynchronous discussion forum to exchange experiences and doubts among participants and with the facilitators will be available. The workshop will serve professionals from institutions with interest in implementing international educational programs, or with current international programs who want to benchmark and improve based on the experience of other institutions.
Joint Accreditation for IPCE Panel: Soul-searching, Decisions & Action! (WA-02)
Friday, April 14, 2023, 12:00PM - 1:30PM Central Time
Every CME Director and CME team member struggles with the decision to stay with their individual accrediting bodies, such as ACCME, ACPE, and/or ANCC and work collaboratively with other Schools (e.g., Pharmacy, Nursing, Dentistry, Psychology, Social Work) or to seek out additional accreditations. Joint Accreditation for IPCE: Soul-Searching, Decisions and Actions! will provide thought-provoking points for those interested in Joint Accreditation at every stage of the decision-making process. Three medical school providers will each share their individual team’s journeys. First, the Soul-searching phase from University of California, San Francisco, second the phase of waiting to hear from Boston University, and third, the perspective from Stanford University Center for CME, flow of the intervention or models in use. This is a panel discussion and interactive session with 3 seasoned CME/CPD leaders on challenges and opportunities in the process of seeking Joint Accreditation for IPCE, facilitated by SACME program committee member Diana Durham, PhD. Learners will utilize a provided worksheet to write down their “Ah-ha/Eureka” moments and list two or three actions they will take home. These might include inventorying current activities or exploring what other schools/units are doing, partnering to reduce redundancies, connecting with health system officials, and/or attending an informational webinar. This workshop is designed for anyone at all levels interested in learning more about, or embarking, on the journey to Joint Accreditation.

A Framework for Embedding Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) into CPD/CME Instructional Design (WA-03)
Wednesday, April 19, 2023, 10:00AM - 1:00PM Central Time
In this workshop learners will learn how to use an equity and inclusion lens at each stage of the training design and development process. This framework uses the Analyze, Design, Develop, Implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE) model of instructional design to illustrate practical examples of what health equity and inclusion looks like in these stages. Learners are walked through each stage of the process and provided with opportunities to interact and apply aspects of the framework. This three-hour workshop will include an overview of the framework as well as small group discussions led by the facilitators that will provide an opportunity for learners to apply different pieces of the framework to practical examples and discussion on how the framework can be used in a learner’s own practice. Larger group discussions occur throughout the workshop, as well as after each small group discussion. Reflection activities are interspersed for learners to pause and consider the application of the material. This workshop is open to those who design, develop, and deliver CPD/CME. Learners will not be taught how to develop training, but rather how to incorporate best practices related to EDI into training.

Using Social Learning Principles to Support Life-Long-Learning, Joy and Engagement in CPD and Practice of Health Care (WA-04)
Monday, April 24, 2023, 11:00AM - 1:30PM Central Time
The science of teaching and learning in medical education has for a long time focused on the developmental and cognitive advances that shine the light on how to structure learning opportunities for individual clinicians with the goal of positive changes in behaviors and improvements in clinical care. However, social aspects of learning structured as part of practice can play a critical role in overcoming barriers to continuous improvement by advancing engagement, motivation and readiness for life-long-learning and change. When learning organizations also support self-directed learning needs of clinicians and faculty, a meaningful, joyful, and effective social communities of learning inspired by and imbedded in practice can blossom. Recent focus on online education and virtual learning environments provides further exciting opportunities for collaborative, sequenced and impactful learning in global contexts. During this interactive session evidence from sociological studies of human behaviors in the workplace will be shared with participants. We will attempt to address the challenge in CME/CPD today to assist clinicians and educators to create strategies for continuous improvement in the workplace. Examples of successful CME/CPD and IPCE redesign using social learning principles and practices such as “communities of learning and practice” and “shared learning spaces” “practice talk”, use of “breaks”, “micro learnings” and others will serve to provoke thinking and sharing of ideas, stories, and resources within the group. This workshop is designed for faculty, educators, CPD planners and others interested who are responsible and engaged in designing effective CPD.
We Can Not Unring the Bell! Strategies to Tackle Educational Technology Barriers in post-COVID Medical Education (WA-05)
Friday, April 28, 2023, 10:00AM - 12:00PM Central Time
The pandemic disrupted medical education. Despite this, many technologies and innovations were developed during this time to change the way clinical education was delivered while simultaneously transforming the expectations of educators and learners alike. As the world moves on from this ‘great reset’, there is an insidious tendency to revert to pre-pandemic form and norms. This workshop will investigate scenarios and options to equip the educator/teacher with tools to ensure continued progress and momentum forward. Using a case example, participants will focus on addressing technology barriers in small groups from multiple perspectives. At the end of the session, learners will be expected to discuss the different EdTech initiatives during the pandemic (what worked and what did not); examine what administrators, educators, and learners thought (about these innovations, with respect to their roles, ie delivering/managing, creating curricula, and learning/evaluation); appraise the current post-pandemic trends in medical education (are we moving backwards?); and identify and address barriers to implementation of EdTech by examining various perspectives and/or education roles. Participants involved on all aspects of CME/CPD from program coordinators to educators and leaders are invited to attend.
Cultivating Safe, Equitable, and Inclusive Learning Environments: A Framework for Navigating Accommodations Planning for Medical Learners (WA-06)
Tuesday, May 2, 2023, 1:00PM - 3:00PM Central Time
Learners seeking accessibility in training require support for safe and robust accommodations planning to successfully develop the essential skills of a physician. Coordinating accommodations in medical education is challenging due to inconsistent policies, sporadic support across training environments, and a lack of understanding of visible and non-visible disabilities. This workshop will review key legal and equity/inclusion-based frameworks for effective accommodations planning for medical educators considering issues of stigma and self-disclosure. In the workshop, an interactive framework will be presented to aid in determining accommodations. Participants will then apply the framework in interactive small group discussions anchored in high-fidelity trainee cases. Participants will then review and discuss in small groups barriers that exist for medical learners seeking accommodations and based on the cases and formulate potential solutions. Participants will then engage in facilitated discussion on how to improve the accommodations process at their local sites towards inclusive and supportive training environments. This workshop is designed for health professions students, residents, junior and senior faculty, education leaders and wellness leaders.
Creating and Revising Clinical Curricula through an Inclusive Lens (WA-07)
Friday, May 5, 2023, 10:00AM - 11:30PM Central Time
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) has emerged as an important foundational principle in medical education. Although widely recognized as a need, those planning and providing education often lack practical tools to help develop, create, and evaluate their education through a DEI lens. We developed a DEI resource guide for use in medical education. In this session, we will discuss the process used to create the resource guide and outcomes related to its use. Participants will have the opportunity to practice applying the guide to modify existing curricular materials. They will also leave with resources to aid in developing similar strategies/resources at their home institutions. Participants will achieve the learning objectives through a mix of various learning techniques include brief didactics, small and large group discussion using practice case studies, individual reflection, and game-based learning. This workshop targets planners of educational activities and materials; this would include speakers as well as those involved with broader curriculum development.
Hybrid Flexible (HyFlex) Learning in CPD (WA-08)
Monday, June 5, 2023, 10:30AM - 12:00PM Central Time
Hybrid Flexible (HyFlex) learning is one term used to describe technology enhanced CPD learning environments that allow learners to choose between face to face (F2F) or online attendance. There are various other terms used including hybrid, dual delivery, and blended synchronous learning to name a few and its lack of a standardized name reflects the evolving nature of this diverse form of delivery. HyFlex environments allow flexible learning options for CPD learners while still maintaining quality provision of education, however, education needs to be carefully planned and delivered. Using collaborative methods and technology enhanced tools, this interactive workshop will review the current definitions and evidence of Blended, Hybrid and HyFlex learning, exploring different models for multi-component medical education. It will highlight moving beyond a technocentric approach to online learning using effective teaching principles, considering how issues such as engagement and inclusivity need to be reconsidered across content delivery, interactivity, and assessment in each teaching modality. Practical application including different formats and facilitation, hardware and software will be discussed. This workshop is designed for both clinical educators and CPD providers and administrators.
Continuing Education Clinician Educators: Planning for Improvement (WA-09)
Friday, June 9, 2023, 10:00AM - 11:30AM Central Time
Clinician educators in continuing education (CE) are typically thrust into the role without formal education or training. The Clinician Educator Milestones can help individual educators identify opportunities for improvement and aid in creating a professional development plan. This workshop will provide an introduction and background of the Clinical Educator Milestones followed by small group discussions, self-reflection, and large group discussion of professional development opportunities. Dedicated time for further discussion and Q&A are built-in. This workshop is designed for CPD professionals interested in their own professional development or in the professional development of the CPD team and clinician educators.
