KOHS introduced a new learning course addressing the “base and middle management” in health care organizations (via diepartner.at). The learning course is certified according to §64 GuKG (Austrian law).
The learning module “base and middle management” is structured itself into 6 modules. The education takes place within 9 blocks (presence: 4 times a 3 day block and 1 times a 2 day block; virtual: 3 times a 2 day block and 1 times a 1 day block; in total 21 days (of 9 units per day). Additionally the participants have to self-study along their personal learning portfolio. This learning course is completed by a final examination before a board (including representatives of public authority).
The development of this learning course is based on the experiences with virtual learning and the work on concepts of management in health care (e.g. described in 2012 [1]).
