Training will be delivered using the ECHO™ Model. This is an all teach-all learn tele-mentoring model that uses case-based learning and a hub-and-spoke knowledge-sharing approach. Expert teams (master Trainers) use videoconferencing to conduct learning sessions with participants throughout the state. The goal is to reduce health disparities, especially in traditionally underserved areas, by closing gaps in access and increasing workforce capacity to provide the application of best practices and needed services (hsc.unm.edu/echo). The principles of this model are: (1) amplification, using technology to leverage scarce resources, (2) best practices to reduce disparity, (3) case-based learning to master complex issues, and (4) data to monitor outcomes (hsc.unm.edu/echo).

Will we have access to the slides for each session?
Slides will be sent to you after you attend a session and complete the corresponding session evaluation.
What if I miss a session? Will the sessions be recorded?
Given the topics we will be covering in these sessions and the possibility that confidential information may be disclosed, we will not be recording them. If you miss a session, you may register to attend the missed session during the next scheduled series later in 2024.
How can I access handouts from session(s) I missed?
Please email Kristina Hightshoe (Kristina.Hightshoe@cuanschutz.edu) to be included on the invitation list for the missed session. If you would like the slides for the missed session, please email Kristina. She will send the slides once you attend another session and complete the evaluation for that session.
What is REDCap?
Surveys and evaluations will be sent to you via REDCap, a secure, web-based application designed to support data collection for research studies on secure servers.
I have questions, who do I ask?
If you have any questions, please contact Kristina. Do not send a question to the email address in REDCap since it is only for technical support issues.
