Initiative Supporting Mental Health Care Providers**
 * 7.4 – Prescription for Performance: An Innovative e-Learning

Matt Donovan, Option Six, Tami Argo, University of Texas at Austin Friday, September 26, 11:00 am – 12:15 pm

This session will present an interactive, real-world case study on performance-oriented continuing education curriculum. The case focuses on an innovative e- Learning initiative that supports a statewide network of mental healthcare providers in the accurate diagnosis of depressive disorders. The audience will be challenged with the design of instruction that would effectively ensure that the healthcare providers could effectively apply a very complex research-based treatment algorithm. We will present the actual solution and discuss the strategy for evaluating the solution’s effectiveness in the field.
