Subjects And Methods: Seven batches of medical teachers from a private Medical College Hospital underwent a three day training in the basics of MET, as per the guidelines of MCI. Pretest and post test for evaluation and feedback on usefullness were obtained from the participants.
Results & Discussion: The results analysed with the statistical Graphpad Prism6 software showed a significantly high post test marks 7.09/10±1.395 (mean±SD) compared to the pretest marks 2.184/10±1.019. (P value < 0.0001). Feedback in the Likertscale format from more than 95% of the participants also pronounced the usefulness of the programme.
Conclusion: The statistically significant post test marks and the Feedback (Likertscale) from the participants vouch for the necessity of the training.
