The TEACH program is aimed at physicians and other health care
professionals from all disciplines and specialties. This first-of-its
kind experience will be comprised of three interconnected tracks:

Track #1: Forming Recommendations Using GRADE

The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation
(GRADE) system provides a transparent approach to rating the quality
of evidence. GRADE considers patient values and preferences in the
course of developing recommendations. Participants will learn to use
this system. They should be individuals involved in guideline
development or in defining health care policy and recommendations.

Track #2: Implementing Clinical Evidence in Care Settings

Also called "knowledge translation", implementation science skills
equip participants to successfully install evidence-based policies and
pathways in their care settings. Participants will learn how to
systematically Identify the obstacles confronting such efforts and the
means of overcoming them. They should be individuals who are involved
in developing and implementing clinical policy in their care centers

Track #3: Evidence Based Individualized Care

Participants will learn how to harness the value of scientific
evidence within individualized patient care. Innovative approaches to
‘traditional’ evidence-based medicine cover the full range of required
skills within a practice-based framework. Skills pertaining to the
patient-practitioner interaction and relationship will be emphasized.
Participants should be individuals with direct responsibility for
patient care and clinical education.

THE TEACH DESIGN
Educational efforts in evidence-based practice can only achieve their
stated goals if they lead to changes in practitioner behavior and,
ultimately, to improved patient outcomes. The novel 3-track framework
of the TEACH program embraces Knowledge Translation (KT) and
Evidence-Based Individualized Care (EBIC). In so doing, it provides
clinicians with the arms and legs required to transform their
acquisition of EBIC skills into demonstrable improvements in care.
Workshop participants learn how KT and EBIC skills can complement each
other and how to develop educational and practice initiatives within
their home centers based upon this principle. Through exposure to the
GRADE track, they also acquire critical literacy in relation to
clinical policies and guidelines.

TEACH seeks enrollment on the part of hospitals, hospital services and
training programs and other entities that provide health care services
to patients. It provides enrollees with discounts on tuition together
with on-going educational support and other facilitation for up to a 3
year period.

The annual workshops are led by experienced faculty, including
internationally renowned authorities in the three track areas. These
experts work as mentors and facilitators with participants in each of
the three tracks (KT, EBIC and GRADE). Participants are able to
acquire and improve relevant skills while actively planning programs
for implementation in their individual practice settings under expert
tutelage.

FRONTIER INNOVATIONS
Within the three tracks, the TEACH conference and workshops draw on
innovations in conception and design that have emerged from over a
decade of education research and development within the New York
Academy Section on Evidence Based Health Care. These include the
integration of concepts and teaching tools borrowed from narrative
medicine with evidence-based individualized care and a comprehensive
‘blueprint’ of information skills that addresses the full spectrum of
clinical research relevant to practice.

Online learning and preparatory support tools are available to
participants in all three tracks prior to and during the workshop.
Participants from enrolled care centers retain ongoing access to the
interactive website, and to applications that facilitate the
development of on-site care and training initiatives. Integration and
interaction between the 3 tracks of the TEACH conference is enhanced
via plenary sessions, small group learning, track specific seminars
and other special sessions.
