Pilot process

A national project officer, Kate Anthony, was appointed earlier in the year to assist with the MHPOD pilot. Kate is based at the Department of Health in Victoria. She has travelled to each of the pilot jurisdictions except the Northern Territory, to assist in their preparation for piloting the first ten topics to be released. (The trip to Darwin was unfortunately cancelled owing to illness, so a workshop was conducted remotely instead). A list of the pilot Topics can be found here. The pilot includes a trial of blended learning facilitation materials to supplement the online content for some participants. An evaluation of the pilot is being conducted by the Centre for Health Policy, Programs and Economics at the University of Melbourne.
