Methods for and obstacles against disseminating training updates. Frequencies of positive responses are shown for methods of sharing training updates (a) and on obstacles towards disseminating training updates (b). Multiple responses were allowed. Differences between responses on routine and outbreak scenarios are marked with an asterisk on the columns. Differences of cumulative (routine and outbreak) responses between questions are marked with a bracket. Level of significance (adjusted for multiple comparisons): * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.005; *** = p < 0.001. Questions and number of valid responses for the routine and outbreak scenarios. a How do you share training updates? (= IP current status); Routine n = 64; Outbreak n = 64. In your opinion, what are the most effective ways to distribute training updates? (= IP perspective); Routine n = 62; Outbreak n = 62. Please indicate what you believe are the preferred ways for healthcare workers to receive training updates? (= IP on HCW perspective); Routine n = 63; Outbreak n = 60. b What do you believe is the main obstacle for disseminating training updates? (= IP perspective); Routine n = 55; Outbreak n = 53. What do you believe is the main obstacle for healthcare workers’ acquisition of knowledge from training updates? (= IP on HCW perspective ); Routine n = 63; Outbreak n = 57
