Whenever I hear online course I think
Of Kath and Kim. It didn’t work out so well for Kel. Online training (self directed) would almost be the worst possible way to mass educate in my opinion.
Online training with video is what is required in this case and there are many examples of successful such online ways of learning.
The alternative is to bring thousands in for face to face training which is not practical at all
It took until my principal basically handcuffed me to a laptop a year after the pandemic started to do the education department's 'infectious disease' online course.
Which was, as expected, a joke, riddled with errors and probably written by someone who had failed upward as a Teacher into a department job and who had never set foot in a research lab, and was only half paying attention as they transcribed out of 'Covid for Dummies'.
dont confuse online training put together for the sake of ticking a box, by some nuffie who doesnt know what they are talking about with good, meaningful online training designed for actual outcomes.
there is lots of the former, but the latter does exist.
Depends on the persons background and motivation And how well it is done. Effective online training would have to be paired with field verification and hopefully be instructor led and have interaction during it. im not saying you can’t learn anything online just that it’s a shitty way to train people unless done very well.
If it’s a super simple task analogous to things people already do then agree It may work fine. but in that case it’s a waste of time anayway as isn’t adding any value.
It's like anything, only adds value if it is done well.
The training as I understand it is a lot about how to maximise the use of the vaccine and storage and logistics. I assume it also includes the Pfizer vaccine which needs to be mixed with saline and handled and stored carefully as well.
Online training is generally inferior to in-person training.
Should only be used where you are teaching a specific task to people who are already trained and experienced in what they do. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists can all do vaccines so teaching them some extra specifics for these vaccines should be fine online. It isn't a totally new task for them, just some specifics they would need to be across.

Our vaccine rollout is a disaster – here’s how to fix it
We’ve delivered a jab to only about 2 per cent of Australians, while Britain and the US are at 46 per cent and 30 per cent. There’s simply no time left to waste to get this right.

It’s a total stuff up.
Brazil and India are going gangbusters and accounted for a third of the world's new cases and deaths in yesterday's figures.
Government limits use of AstraZeneca vaccine for under-50s over clotting fears
Phase 1b of Australia's COVID-19 vaccination rollout may be delayed as the government heeds advice to prioritise Pfizer for the under-50s after blood clot concerns surrounding the AstraZeneca jab.

So by the time I'm the next one in line for this Slo Mo vaccine rollout, I'll have to have the *smile* one?

So when do we start getting more of the Pfizer vaccine then? This HAS to have an affect of pushing out the timeframe around vaccination.
My brother is getting married in the UK next Easter, if I can't get back because this government hasn't organised vaccine delivery in an adequate fashion, I'm going to be pissed off.
Non poltical question if they are allowed on this thread now.
How does the AZ vaccine know how old you are? In other words why does the blood clot risk decrease in older people?
