Abstract

Abstract: This paper is a summary of findings based on a 7-year case study in which a comprehensive eLearning program was planned, designed and built for a healthcare workforce of 26,000 at the University of Michigan Health System (UMHS). These findings are anchored in a 5-year evaluation of the program’s performance since the implementation in 2005. The evaluation generated lessons from which an array of rules was formed to shape future development. The top four rules highlighted in this paper were vetted by means of a survey sent to educators on UMHS staff and a second survey conducted in cooperation with members of the Illinois State Medical Society. These rules have proven to be essential for building a sustainable eLearning program, regardless of budget or scope.
