Advanced Simulation Training in Mechanical Ventilation (ASTiM)

HKJC Innovative Learning Centre for Medicine (ILCM) has newly developed ASTiM, in collaboration with Hong Kong Society of Critical Care Medicine (HKSCCM) and Hong Kong College of Critical Care Nursing (HKCCCN), aiming at enhancing knowledge and skills in “Advanced Mechanical Ventilation” through interactive learning activities and hands on simulation training workshops with the advanced Respiratory Flight Simulator.

ASTiM is a one-day course. There are 2 batches to be held at ILCM on 30 and 31 January 2024 (Tuesday and Wednesday). The primary audience is Healthcare professionals (including doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, etc)
who would like to advance mechanical ventilation knowledge.

 

Enrolment is accepted by submitting your application form and cheque to us by 7 November 2023 (Tuesday).

Applications will need to go through a selection process.

Comprehensive Simulation Educator Course (CSEC)

The Comprehensive Simulation Educator Course (CSEC) aims to provide the essential knowledge, and develop learners’ competence, in planning a simulation-based education activity, scenario development, direction, execution and debriefing methods. This course will enable the participants to have an understanding of the basic concepts of learner-centred education. 

Different types of simulators and simulation techniques, and their respective applications will be covered to provide the participants with the resources for their teaching purposes. At the end of the course, the participants will have the basic knowledge and skill to plan and run a simulation-based training course, develop the necessary training material, direct a scenario and debrief the learners on the learning objectives. 

CSEC will be held at ILCM and scheduled as follows in 2023-2024:

Course Dates	Application Deadlines
6-7, 13-14 May 2023	Full

Debriefing Skills for Simulation Instructor (DSSI)

Debriefing Skills for Simulation Instructor (DSSI) course aims to provide the essential knowledge and skills to develop learners’ competence in debriefing methods commonly used in simulation training courses. In this course, the learners will have an understanding of the basic concepts of experiential and learner-centred education, and develop skills in a structured approach to debriefing. On completion of the course, the learner will be able to facilitate a simulated scenario and apply adult learning methods in the teaching activity. The learner will also be exposed to concept of team-based training and crew resource management elements during the learning activities.

Doctors, Nurses and Healthcare Professionals involved medical simulation training and other methods in which debriefing techniques and skills are employed to enhance effective learning.  

DSSI will be held at ILCM and scheduled as follows in April 2023-March 2024:

Course Dates	Application Deadlines
17-18 June 2023	Full
29-30 July 2023	Full

The HKJC Innovative Learning Centre for Medicine (ILCM) has developed the Learning OnLine (LOL) Educator Course to support the strategy of the Academy in promoting E-learning.  Based on the feedback of participants and evaluation by faculties after the course in July 2022-Dec 2022, the refined course is now ready for enrollment. We decided to invite 4 colleges each to nominate a team of 6 learners to attend the course.

We would like to invite you to send nominations for this upcoming Learning OnLine (LOL) Educator Course from 2 Jul to 19 Sept 2023. The LOL course is supported by funding from the Academy and participants will not be charged.  The course will be conducted fully online over 12 weeks with 7 modules across 3 Zoom sessions on:  

• 2 July 2023 (Sun) – Module 1: Introduction Session   (1700 - 1830)
• 6 August 2023 (Sun) – Module 5: On-line Learning Day  (0830 - 1700)
• 19 September 2023 (Tue) – Module 7: Reflection Evening  (1830 - 2100)       
• Modules 2-4, and Module 6 will be conducted by asynchronous communication. 

The class size is 20-24. If your college is interested, please kindly nominate in 5-6 fellows by 14 May 2023 (Sun) to facilitate specialties’ group discussions during the Course and so to enhance learning outcomes. Upon receiving nominations, nominees of 4 Colleges will be arranged to join this class first while other Colleges will be arranged to join subsequent classes in future. 

Application is invited now.
