Adult Education is regarded as a marginal activity stuck on to our education system somewhere between our leaving primary school and our going senile; we have to run it with meagre budgets, leftover facilities and other people’s spare time ... Though the situation is improving slightly all the time adult education has not achieved a recognised standing in this country. Hanna, I. (1965). ‘The adult student and languages’, Australian Journal of Adult Education, 5(2), 3–9.

Standard 9
• Australia has no standardised training requirements for recognising and responding to clinical deterioration

• In adult patients admitted to hospital, there is insufficient evidence to support or refute the use of early warning/RRT/MET systems, compared with no such systems, to reduce cardiac and respiratory arrests and hospital mortality. However, it is reasonable for hospitals to provide a system of care that includes (a) staff education about the signs of patient deterioration; (b) appropriate and regular vital signs monitoring of patients; (c) clear guidance (eg, via calling criteria or early warning scores) to assist staff in the early detection of patient deterioration; (d) a clear, uniform system of calling for assistance; and (e) a clinical response to calls for assistance.
• There is insufficient evidence to identify the best methods for the delivery of these components and, based on current evidence, this should be based on local circumstances.

• We have placed a high value on the consistency and precision of the improvement in CPR quality and short term survival as the proximal endpoints of the educational intervention. We have placed a lesser value on the potential costs of implementation.

e-ALS
• 3732 ALS candidates in UK/Australia • An ALS course supplemented with e-learning was
less expensive but had lower pass rates on cardiac arrest simulation tests than did conventional training. • Conventional 2 day course 80% pass practical test • e-ALS 75% pass for practical test

• Blended approach to ALS training that included e-learning reduced the duration and costs of face-to-face training by one half
• The blended and conventional approaches had similar outcomes for knowledge- and skill based domains
• CASTest in the e-ALS group …….. resulted in 1 additional participant who did not successfully complete the course for every 39 course participants

"Adult Education is an intervention into the ordinary business of life-----an intervention whose immediate goal is change, in knowledge or in competence. An adult educator is one, essentially, who is skilled at making such interventions.” From: Courtney, S. (1989). Handbook of Adult and Continuing Education. San Francisco: Jossey-Bass
