The effectiveness of E-learning in continuing medical education for tuberculosis health workers: a quasi-experiment from China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Given the context of rapid technological change and COIVD-19 pandemics, E-learning may provide a unique opportunity for addressing the challenges in traditional face-to-face continuing medical education (CME). However, the effectiveness of E-learning in CME interventions remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate whether E-learning training program can improve TB health personnel's knowledge and behaviour in China.

Methods

Quantitative data was collected by staff surveys (baseline n = 555; final n = 757) and managem
