The research has been conducted to understand the training effectiveness where health professional participates for training who work under the Bangladesh Government. The research used the Kirkpatrick model. The paper has collected data form, 323 participants. The research measured the training effectiveness using survey questions. The multiple regression techniques have used to conduct analysis of the collected data. The findings of the research revealed that the training effectiveness has been affected significant positively by training motivation, trainer qualification, and training design. Moreover, the training environment does not have significant role on the impacting of the training effectiveness respectively. The study has specific recommendations based on the above findings as the bench mark to improve the effectiveness training in Bangladesh and the regions.

Mobile health encompasses remote and wireless applications to provide health services. Despite the advantages of applying mobile-based monitoring systems, there are challenges and limitations; understanding the challenges may assist in identifying available solutions and optimising decision-making to apply mHealth technologies more practically. This study aimed to investigate the main challenges related to mHealth-based systems for health monitoring purposes. This review was carried out through investigation of English evidence from four databases, including Scopus, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science, using a defined search strategy from 2013 to 2017. Two independent researchers reviewed the results based on PRISMA guidelines, and data was categorised using a bottom-up approach to reach a framework for the most general challenges. Among the 105 papers obtained, eight works were selected. The revealed challenges were categorised into six main branches across a tree (with 55 nodes, four levels) including user-related, infrastructure, process, management, resource and training challenges. Identifying the resolvable and preventable challenges, such as those related to training, design might play a crucial role in preventing loss of resources and in growing the success rate of a project, particularly if considered in national level projects.

Resumen:La transferencia de la formación, junto a los factores que la facilitan o la inhiben, forma parte de los retos a los que se enfrentan las instituciones universitarias. Teniendo como foco la formación en TIC que recibe el profesorado universitario, en este trabajo se analiza la influencia que tienen los factores relativos a la formación y al propio participante en la posterior transferencia al puesto de trabajo. Se ha llevado a cabo una investigación transeccional de corte correlacional en la que han participado 155 docentes de tres universidades catalanas que habían pasado por un proceso formativo en TIC. En cuanto al diseño de la formación, los resultados apuntan a que una formación diseñada según el contexto real de participante influye significativamente en la posterior puesta en práctica de lo aprendido. En cuanto al participante, los resultados sugieren que lo que influye en la transferencia es la capacidad de integrar tecnología, pedagogía y disciplina (TPACK). Se concluye el artículo con una serie de recomendaciones con ánimo de facilitar la transferencia de las formaciones en TIC que se ofertan al profesorado universitario. Abstract:The transfer of training is, together with the factors involved, one of the challenges that universities have to face. Focusing on the teacher training in ICT, in this work we analyse the role of individual and training design factors on transfer. A cross-sectional correlation investigation was performed, participating 155 teachers from three Catalan universities who had been trained in ICT. As far as the training design, the results show that a training designed according to the real context of the participant is the biggest influential factor on transfer. Also, the results suggests that the capacity of the participant to integrate technology, pedagogy and content (TPACK) is an influential factor on transfer. The technological competence, which is similar to instrumental ability, obtained the 4th position in the correlation analysis. This paper concludes with recommendations in order to facilitate the transfer of teacher training in ICT.

Purpose Safety and organizational research indicates that fostering resilience in organizations is a promising way for improving safety, albeit concrete means to implement resilience are still lacking, especially in the educational field. The purpose of this paper is to propose four principles for training design derived from past and current studies the authors conduct in high-risk organizations. Design/methodology/approach Training for resilience is considered within an enactive approach of human activity building on its properties of autonomy, structural coupling, self-organization, emergence, sensemaking, and metastability. Findings The article describes four educational design principles aiming at improving individual, collective, and organizational resilience: encourage mimetic experiences; pay attention to attention and concernedness; perturb and turn into an event; support participatory-sensemaking and collective sensemaking. Research limitations/implications The training program the authors propose may be challenging to assess. Besides, the most durable solutions to improve safety through resilience are to be found at the crossroad between organizational design and training/development policies. Future research should determine the implementability criteria which are likely to support the use of the principles the authors propose, and contribute to enrich this educational foundation. Originality/value Education and training are conceived herein as high-order means to improve safety through resilience in high-risk organizations, fostering the capacity of the operators and organization to develop efficiently and in the long run. We provide independent but complementary training principles that cannot be hierarchized, but that can be locally prioritized in organizations.

Complex issues in training design can occur when a new training program must integrate device/equipment and personnel skills. The Firefinder Simulator, Artillery-Locating Radar System, and Course were analyzed in a specially devised approach to assure training effectiveness. Using qualified personnel for evaluation of course design and performance, a task-oriented questionnaire was given in an interview survey of 53 test-player subjects following a training effectiveness test. Selected results were significantly related to total group analysis reflecting the hypothesized design features and training effectiveness. Training efficiency was augmented so critical tasks and evaluative procedures were emphasized to verify and enhance course content. As a model personnel test and survey approach specific suggestions were produced for training development and improvement for instructors’ and students’ proficiency.
