Course Outline

This two-day classroom and simulator‐based course is aimed at clinical staff, doctors and others, currently involved in the delivery of healthcare training.

The course provides an introduction to facilitation and debriefing through a series of abstract and clinical tasks as well as group work. It includes some of the basic educational theories underpinning the three part model of description, analysis and application (DAA) we utilise. We will also explore the principles of non-technical skills and how these are integrated into the debrief.
