摘要

定量微生物风险评估(QMRA)是一个不断发展的跨学科领域,它涉及微生物病原体暴露和传染病过程。风险科学本质上是跨学科的,但很少有学科项目专门开设 QMRA 课程和培训。为了发展 QMRA 的多学科培训,从 2015 年到 2019 年,每年都会举办为期 10 天的强化研讨会--微生物风险定量评估跨学科教学研究所(QMRA III)。公共卫生、工程学、微生物学、流行病学、传播学、公共政策和 QMRA 等领域的国家领导人担任该计划的讲师和导师。为了提供交叉培训,每年从约 30 名学员中挑选 5-6 名学员组成多学科小组。根据观察结果以及包含李克特量表和开放式提示的调查问卷,对该计划进行了正式评估。此外,还发布了一份纵向校友调查,以促进 QMRA 学院未来的再发展,并确定该计划的影响。在所有年份中,受训人员对其 QMRA 能力(如特定计算机程序的使用)和 QMRA 构建知识(如风险管理)的认知都有显著提高(P < 0.05)。此外,QMRA III 研究所的项目或切入研究还产生了 12 篇出版物、3 篇会议论文和 2 项研究基金。QMRA III 的成功表明,短期课程的形式可以有效满足许多多学科的培训需求。QMRA III 的主要特点,包括跨学科培训方法、实践练习、实际研究所项目以及通过指导过程进行的互动,对于培训拥有多种专业技能的多学科团队至关重要。未来的 QMRA 学院正在重新开发,以利用混合学习形式,进一步实现多学科培训和指导目标。

Development and evaluation of an intensive short course: the Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment Interdisciplinary Instructional Institute (QMRA III).

Quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) is a growing interdisciplinary field addressing exposures to microbial pathogens and infectious disease processes. Risk science is inherently interdisciplinary, but few of the contributing disciplinary programs offer courses and training specifically in QMRA. To develop multidisciplinary training in QMRA, an annual 10-day long intensive workshop was conducted from 2015 to 2019-the Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment Interdisciplinary Instructional Institute (QMRA III). National leaders in the fields of public health, engineering, microbiology, epidemiology, communications, public policy, and QMRA served as instructors and mentors over the course of the program. To provide cross-training, multidisciplinary teams of 5-6 trainees were created from the approximately 30 trainees each year. A formal assessment of the program was performed based on observations and surveys containing Likert-type scales and open-ended prompts. In addition, a longitudinal alumni survey was also disseminated to facilitate the future redevelopment of QMRA institutes and determine the impact of the program. Across all years, trainees experienced statistically significant increases (P < 0.05) in their perceptions of their QMRA abilities (e.g., use of specific computer programs) and knowledge of QMRA constructs (e.g., risk management). In addition, 12 publications, three conference presentations, and two research grants were derived from the QMRA III institute projects or tangential research. The success of QMRA III indicates that a short course format can effectively address many multidisciplinary training needs. Key features of QMRA III, including the inter-disciplinary training approach, hands-on exercises, real-world institute projects, and interaction through a mentoring process, were vital for training multidisciplinary teams housing multiple forms of expertise. Future QMRA institutes are being redeveloped to leverage hybrid learning formats that can further the multidisciplinary training and mentoring objectives.
