Highlights & Benefits

Designed for the busy healthcare educator with limited time, the Gateway Debriefing Skills Workshop:

• Immerses participants in the deliberate practice of debriefing with skills acquired using Debriefing with Good Judgment.
• Connects participants to a community of colleagues where they can continually develop and improve their debriefing, feedback and bedside teaching skills
• Helps meet the demands of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) Simulation Guidelines for Pre-licensure Nursing Programs

Participants will have the opportunity to:

• Learn how to efficiently improve future performance
• Learn how to set high standards while holding high regard for the learner
• Treat learners as thinkers and not just doers
• Practice various debriefing phases

The Gateway Debriefing Skills Workshop is intended to be an introduction to the Debriefing with Good Judgment method of debriefing and can serve as a gateway to CMS’ multi-day Simulation Instructor Training Programs held at CMS in Boston and around the world. The Gateway Debriefing Skills Workshop will be facilitated by a lead CMS faculty member and a team of talented co-facilitators who have been trained by CMS.

Additional Details for Nursing Programs

Nursing programs whose faculty attend the Gateway Debriefing Skills Workshop will be able to provide evidence of meeting the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) guidelines by demonstrating that:

• There is a commitment on the part of the school for their simulation program, as evidenced by budgetary planning for faculty training.
• Lead faculty and simulation lab personnel are qualified to conduct simulation, as evidenced by the certificate of completion that will be awarded at the completion of the workshop.

Technology Requirements

The online course is delivered via Zoom, a web conferencing platform. All materials and course interactions will occur online. To participate in this course, each individual – even if they are attending the course with a colleague from the same institution – needs:

• Their own computer (desktop or laptop). Sharing a computer limits the ability to interact. There will be many instances where we will break out into different rooms in Zoom. Tablets and mobile phones do not allow full engagement to complete the course.
• Reliable high-speed internet access (minimum 3 Mbps upload/download speed). Wired internet access is much preferred; wireless internet access is less likely to work well.
• Their own computer headset (microphone and earphones)
• Webcam
• Zoom Desktop Client installed on their computer
  We recommend downloading and installing the Zoom Desktop Client on the computer used for the course for full functionality.
• Their own space away from others because conversations from nearby colleagues can interfere with the course audio. This course should be completed in a space not shared with others.
