[Self-Management_OR] CDSMP refresher curriculum - with online training for MTs now available

[MEAD Jennifer]

Apologies for any duplication, but I'm forwarding this email from Stanford about a new 5-hour CDSMP Leader refresher curriculum that's been developed (thanks to RVCOG in Oregon's involvement in developing this!).  Master Trainers can get trained to provide the refresher - with the first 3 online trainings being offered free of charge (and then for $50 per Master Trainer).  See the information below.

The Stanford Patient Education Research Center, in cooperation with the Arizona Living Well Institute, Pima Council on Aging, Yavapai County Community Health, Partners in Care Foundation, California Department of Public Health, Consortium for Older Adult Wellness, Rogue Valley Council of Governments, Taulity Healthcare, Samaritan Health Services, and Center for Excellence in Aging and Community Wellness, has developed a long-awaited refresher curriculum for Leaders of Stanford Self-Management Programs. The effort was funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The new Refresher Manual is designed for Master Trainers or T-Trainers to use to refresh well-performing Leaders who have been unable to facilitate a workshop in the time required to maintain their active status.  It concentrates on the critical process skills that are common to all Stanford Self-Management programs, and is applicable to all of the Stanford programs. In-person Leader Refresher training takes about 5 hours when lunch is not figured in.  More information can be found on our website:

Registration for Master Trainer/T-Trainer 1-hour orientation webinars is now open.  Trainers will need to attend an orientation webinar before using the Refresher Manual to refresh their Leaders.  There is no charge for the first 3 orientation webinars, but after that the charge will be
$50 per attendee.  Register early to save $$!

For those organizations that may find it difficult to do in-person Leader Refresher training, Stanford will also offer online Refresher training for Leaders beginning in late summer.  More details to come.
