The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Fogarty International Center (CFDA 93.989 - International Research and Research Training) awarded a $174,511 Project Grant to The Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford University) to determine the effect of incorporating tailored skills practice and rapid content development into an adaptive e-learning intervention called PACE. The goal is to increase the quality of newborn and pediatric care in Tanzania by improving provider proficiency through blended e-learning and in-person training that is continuously contextualized to facility needs. The award will fund two phases - an R21 to test the intervention enhancements, and an R33 to validate PACE implementation feasibility across all facility types and establish a system to derive provider-specific quality of care metrics. This innovative mixed methods approach aims to provide a framework for optimally integrating e-learning into tailored skills training and clinical auditing to improve provider education and quality of care in low- and middle-income countries.
