Is training mandatory?

Yes. Training is mandatory for anyone who will use MEDITECH Expanse.

Training in Fluency Direct will be offered at the end of every provider classroom training session, for one hour. It is not mandatory but is strongly recommended to ease the learning curve at Go-Live.
Will training time be compensated?

Yes. Physicians are compensated at Doctors of B.C. sessional rates for e-learns and classroom sessions based on the training hours required.

Other roles will be compensated at the appropriate rate for their training time per their collective agreements.
When do I need to complete training?

All training must be complete before accessing MEDITECH® Expanse for patient care. The e-learning modules must be completed before you attend the classroom training.
How do I register?

Registration for training happens on the LearningHub.

Visit the Register page to find information on how to set up your LearningHub account and find your training curriculum.
Where do I go for in-person, classroom training?
If you are associated with Fraser Canyon Hospital, training will be offered at Fraser Canyon and at Chilliwack General Hospital.

If you are associated with Mission Memorial Hospital, training will be offered at Mission Memorial and Abbotsford Regional Hospital.

If you are from Fraser Canyon you cannot go to Mission Memorial or Abbotsford, and if you are from Mission Memorial you cannot go to Fraser Canyon or Chilliwack.
How long will training take?
The time varies depending on your role and your scope of use of MEDITECH Expanse.

E-learning courses should take a maximum of three (3) hours to complete for all roles.

Classroom training will vary, taking a half day for some roles and up to two full days for other roles.
Why is there so much training?

We want to ensure you are given the opportunity to interact and engage in detailed walkthroughs of different orders, medication types, and in-depth clinical scenarios. This approach will help you feel prepared for Go-Live.
How will the Advance Program ensure that training is relevant to different roles and covers important workflows?

We are working with Clinical Nurse Educators, provider representatives and clinical work stream representatives to design realistic clinical scenarios. These scenarios will contain important workflows that are regularly used in specific clinical areas. Lesser used or simpler workflows will be covered in e-learns.
Can I refer back to e-learns once they are completed in LearningHub?

Yes. The e-Learns will remain in your curriculum and you can refer back to them as many times as you want.
What if I complete my training and I don't feel ready?

It is normal to feel stress and apprehension. You are not alone; help will be available. There will be in-person support on the units to coach anyone who needs it, help to remember workflow steps, and report issues if something is not working as intended. It typically takes one rotation to be comfortable working through repetitive workflows and several weeks to be fully comfortable with the system.
When your training is complete, we encourage you to take advantage of our practice opportunities.
