Looking for sufficient change: Evaluation of counsellor training for STI syndromic management in India

In India, public health care of Sexually Transmitted Infections is delivered through Designated STI/RTI Clinics (DSRCs) using syndromic management. This paper describes efforts, over three years, to improve in-service training for counsellors positioned at DSRCs—using a data approach. The programme managers realised, through rigorous monitoring of initial induction training reports that, while knowledge and attitudes of most trainees had improved as evident from t-tests, at least one-quarter scored worse on post-training assessments (n = 859). Therefore, they undertook a survey using a competency approach to diagnose what critical competencies are influenced through training: counselling skills, risk reduction suggestions, labelling male and female anatomy, record-keeping and STI patient education (n = 132). Survey results demonstrated that trainees failed to pass a two-thirds cutoff score in most competencies. These findings led the programme managers to modify training and implement tighter quality measures. In the second round of training – refresher training – outcomes on competency assessments before and after training showed more acceptable performance (n = 833). The paper describes how programme managers, after an acceptance of such initial short-comings, developed customized assessments when literature provided limited guidance and how they worked to achieve change that was acceptable for programme needs.

Assessing Social Work Field Education: Towards Standardising Fieldwork Assessment in New Zealand

Assessment is a core feature of social work field education and enables both ongoing formative processes of monitoring and feedback and summative assessment of a student's competence at the conclusion of a fieldwork placement. In New Zealand, tertiary providers of social work programmes currently have considerable discretion in monitoring and assessing students' competence in their fieldwork placements. The variation in social work field education curriculum, particularly in assessment, can create confusion for employers and does not enable a streamlined process towards provisional registration as a social worker. This article proposes the development of national standards in field education learning outcomes to strengthen current field education programmes, to create a pathway for provisional registration with the Social Workers Registration Board and to increase clarity for employers both in domestic and overseas markets.

基于胜任力的管理辅导效能实验研究

研究通过在国内一家知名企业实施的纵向现场追踪实验发现：中国情景下适应性绩效是个多维结构，包括“组织与文化适应性”、“创造性地解决问题？等五个因素。而且，基于胜任力的辅导模式能更有效地提高被辅导人的适应性绩效水平。这个结果包括两层意思：其一，同未能得到辅导支持的成员相比，被辅导人具有更高的适应性绩效水平；其二，接受“胜任力辅导模式”者比接受”传统辅导模式”者具有更高的适应性绩效水平。另外，统计结果还表明，职位因素在辅导行为对适应性绩效的贡献上并未有显著影响。
