Six years of Project ECHO: Implementation and evaluation of a hospice-led multiprofessional education programme.

This article reports on the implementation and evaluation of an established technology-enabled collaborative learning programme (Project ECHO) at an independent UK hospice in the North of England over a 6-year period. An independent audit of collated, anonymised data from the programme is used to report attendance patterns and session evaluations. The results show a gradual increase in attendances, programmes, sessions and hours of education, coupled with consistently positive evaluation reports. This supports existing evidence that Project ECHO is an effective method of delivering remote healthcare education, demonstrating impact on the first three levels of Moore's education framework; participation, satisfaction and learning. Future expansion in terms of geography and topics covered is proposed, alongside enhanced evaluation methods to demonstrate impact at the higher levels of Moore's framework.
