Trial – Study Finding

• General comments :– Trainees New learning method, easy to navigate– Tutor Adaptation of ICATT software for other

training will be useful

• IT problems were identified:– Installation, transferring profile – Execute ICATT from USB stick

• The video quality should be improved done in 2011 (funded by USAID)

Challenges

• IT/ computer related problem:– During adaptation: new developed software –

bugs– Not all IMCI facilitator can operate computer

• Commitment from trainees – have extra work after working hours

Next StepsLast 2011- 2012Funded by USAID and MoH regular budget• Training for:

–Master of trainer (National)–Trainer (Province and districts – 3

provinces: DKI Jakarta, Banten and West Java)

–Health workers (nurse/ midwife) in selected health centre in 3 provinces

–Pre-service setting (DKI Jakarta)

Next Steps

• Operational Research–Compare ICATT and the regular IMCI

training–Conducted in West Java–Will be conducted by University of

Indonesia
