Working in partnership
As a partner to Project ECHO® we implement ECHO® Learning Series to meet the needs of Queensland communities.
ECHO® Principles
The ECHO® model calls on us to:
A. Use technology to amplify and leverage resources.
B. Share best practices to reduce disparities.
C. Apply case-based learning to master complexity.
D. Evaluate and monitor outcomes.
All teach, all learn
Project ECHO® is a performance and knowledge optimiser. It guides participants toward best practice through knowledge sharing, online interactive discussions and collaborative learning.
Digitally enabled
Participants dial into ECHO® learning series via Zoom video conferencing software which requires an internet connection and a device with a webcam. Zoom is free for participants to download and use.
Access to best practice
ECHO® Learning Series promotes small groups of case- or scenario-based learning, led by a panel of experts. This helps increase access to best practice and reduce health disparities, especially for those in rural and remote areas.
Multi-directional learning
Learn from colleagues, experts and specialist mentors, as they learn from each other, and experts/specialist mentors learn from participants as new best practices emerge.
For series with a clinical focus, participating clinicians who present de-identified cases retain full responsibility for managing the patient.
