Reflections on the preparation of psychotherapy supervisors.

The preparation of psychotherapy supervisors to provide supervision services is examined briefly in this paper. The persistent paradox of psychotherapy supervision training--that the supervisor role is considered highly important in graduate and internship programs, but graduate and post-graduate training in how to be a supervisor is very limited--is discussed. The need to resolve this paradox in psychology training is considered.

New direction in PACS education and training.

The picture archiving and communication system (PACS) is an image information system that has become widely installed. For its successful implementation, training has been found indispensable. A review of PACS training thus far shows major emphasis was placed on the use of display workstations. As an integrated system, the PACS is much broader than the display workstations, having many components that need connectivity and customization. With the many potentials of further development, a more comprehensive education program on PACS is called for and a PACS simulator as a standalone training and research tool is deemed necessary.

Public health skills in primary care in South West England--a survey of training needs, obstacles and solutions.

The UK government is moving primary care towards a more health needs led service. This will require a greater awareness of public health skills among primary care staff. We therefore sent a postal questionnaire to the chairmen of primary care groups (general practitioners), the chief officers of primary care groups, directors of public health, nurse advisors of health authorities, directors of community nursing and directors of midwifery in the South West region of England. Respondents were asked about skills in health needs assessment, health service planning and other public health skills among general practitioners, health visitors and midwives. The survey also covered perceived obstacles to the acquisition of such skills and possible solutions. The response rate was 67% (96/143). Eighty percent of primary care groups returned at least one reply. Sixty-four percent had either not considered the problem or considered it but not acted. Fifty percent of directors of public health felt that they could not provide more training to non-specialist staff. Most organisations provided little training in public health skills to non-specialist staff despite a perceived skill shortage particularly in health promotion, advocacy and the evaluation of the effectiveness and efficiency of services. We conclude that primary care groups and public health departments need to agree how to access public health advice. Primary care groups need to identify individuals with an interest in strategic working and service planning, identify their skill deficits and seek appropriate training.

The evolution of the training policy at IMA.

Training at IMA has been during the last years an expanding activity which reflects the growth of the French MEDLINE network. Initially, before 1973, when IMA was the only centre in France to have access to the MEDLARS system, courses were aimed at increasing the general level of awareness of the biomedical community. After decentralization of the on-line access, it has become necessary to train search analysts for future associate centres, and now IMA organizes two types of course, one for search analysts and one for non-searchers, librarian students or end-users such as researchers for instance. Details of these two kinds of training courses are outlined.
