Computers as a formal continuing education tool: moving beyond intention.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To identify factors related to health promotion professionals' decisions to use computer-mediated instruction for continuing education (CMI-CE). METHODS:Employing a cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 500 respondents using an online survey. RESULTS:Among respondents having positive intentions toward CMI-CE, characteristics distinguishing between individuals with positive and negative CMI-CE behavior included perceived behavioral control, license/ certification, lack of programs and relevant program topics, and availability of technical support. CONCLUSIONS:Health promotion professionals have positive intentions toward CMI-CE, and introducing relevant programs accompanied by strong technical support teams will help move them beyond intention and into action.
