Abstract

Background

Despite knowing the importance of debriefing, there is insufficient evidence to guide the best way to train and provide formative feedback to develop competent debriefers.

Method

This multi-site, experimental, repeated measures study was used to test the impact of different intervals of expert feedback on a debriefer's competence implementing debriefing after participating in an asynchronous, online, distributed modular training program.

Results

Training and early feedback facilitated rapid improvements in a debriefer's ability to implement a debriefing method correctly. Regular feedback improved competence over time.

Conclusion

A well-developed, asynchronous online training program is an effective way to train debriefers.
