ASCIA Anaphylaxis e-training for Schools and Childcare Reports

For the first time since ASCIA e-training courses for Schools and Children’s Education/Care (CEC) were introduced in 2010, reports have been developed based on mandatory feedback surveys in the Australasian versions of the courses. The surveys were completed by 43,945 course participants and the reports are available at https://www.allergy.org.au/ascia-reports#nacscec

Highlights from the Schools, CEC and Refresher course reports include:

  • Relevant to current role - 81% to 86% indicated that the courses were entirely relevant to their current roles.
  • Course content - 94% to 99% indicated there was nothing missing and 89% to 98% thought that the course did not need to be improved.

This work has been completed as part of the National Allergy Council Schools and Childcare project, and results will guide course updates.
