Dental Infection Control Educators and Trainers Toolkit Now Available

Article

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- The Organization for Safety and Asepsis Procedures (OSAP) announces the availability of a Dental Infection Control Educators and Trainers Toolkit, a CD-ROM-based resource containing easy-to-use materials and instructions for creating and delivering effective programs and presentations.

The OSAP Dental Infection Control Educators and Trainers Toolkit is designed to aid in the development and delivery of successful, high-impact infection control and safety training programs and presentations. It addresses everything from program creation and promotion to delivery and audience evaluation and includes easy-to-follow templates and checklists.

This unique toolkit provides practical, how-to information to help increase the effectiveness of infection control education in a variety of settings.  It is useful for veteran presenters and educators as well as those who are delivering training programs or "going to the podium" for the first time.

Divided into nine sections, the toolkit is a compilation of tips, advice and presentation materials gathered from the experts in dental infection control and safety. The sixty-page CD-based workbook addresses adult learning psychology, presentation planning and delivery techniques, infection control lesson plans, memory games, technology, advertising and promotion, travel tips and more. Sample forms (i.e., course evaluation, certificate of participation, etc.) training logs, attendance records and an extensive resource list are also included and can easily be printed as needed. 

The toolkit is a resource for infection control educators, not an infection control program.  While it provides tips and materials educators will find useful in the development of a curriculum, it is not designed to serve as the curriculum.

To order, visit www.OSAP.org or call 1-800-298-6727.  OSAP members receive a substantial discount.
