Thank you to everyone who has emailed me example training logs. A few people have requested that I share the results with them and it was suggested that I put up a dropbox link to all of those provided.

Hello HistonettersI am wondering if anyone can direct me to some good training courses or sources for IT training, but specifically in areas that would be of good use for LIS. I have taken some health informatics courses with SQL, some LOINC,and EMR topics and I am looking to get into these studies a little further. I am not really looking to go into a formal degree program at this time, I am wanting to learn more but only as a part-time study venture.

To anyone in the San Francisco Bay area, generally northern half: Is anyone interested in training a neophyte for histotechnology? A person in San Francisco contacted me about learning histology. He came and observed in our lab and is very interested but needs a lab to train in. He is looking at online histology programs in the meantime. He does not have a degree in biology/chemistry (it is in literature) but he did work summers in a lab during high school and college and actually did limited histology at that time. If you can help him out contact me directly. No need to post back to Histonet. Thanks!

[Histonet] Training first time cutters
It's been awhile since we've had to train someone to cut from scratch and I need your help to figure out two things: 1. how long should it take a new cutter to cut 20 blocks, no levels, nothing fancy, just one HE per block. 2. what's the average length of training for the above to be accomplished? how long is long enough?

RE: [Histonet] Training first time cutters
It varies in my opinion. Some people take longer to catch on. I think ability goes along with workload- I cut quickly and accurately whereas others cut slower and just as accurately. I find I can vary as to tissue also- it depends on the tech.

RE: [Histonet] training materials
Not an immediate help, but there will be a NSH teleconference May 27, 2009 on embedding. PARAFFIN EMBEDDING AND PROCESS IMPROVEMENT Date: May 27, 2009 Time: 1:00PM EST Presented by Joelle Weaver, HTL(ASCP), Blanchard Valley Hospital, Findlay, Ohio; Riverside Methodist Hospital, Columbus, Ohio; Histology Education Coordinator, Columbus State Community College, Columbus, Ohio This presentation is a good review of fundamentals for everyone who routinely embeds a variety of tissue types. The embedding step is often overlooked in process improvement initiatives. At many labs, the embedding step has remained relatively static. What is being done at your facility during embedding to eliminate contamination as well as orientate tissue correctly and optimally for sectioning quality? This teleconference will begin with a review of the fundamentals of tissue embedding and orientation, covering basic principles of tissue sampling and specimen inking that may assist the embedding histologist. The impact of well infiltrated, correctly spaced, properly oriented specimens is strongly correlated to both ease of sectioning as well as section quality. Therefore, it is worth taking the time to consider this topic with fresh eyes and to re-evaluate embedding methodology when other changes are made in the overall process. For info on this and other NSH Teleconferences, go to: http://www.e-guana.net/organizations.php3?orgid=111typeID=1184action=print ContentTypeHomeUser_Session=41327fea4e36d34fede5e76bf55697d2 If having problems with the link, go to: www.nsh.org Click on Continuing Education on the left Click on Earn Continuing Education Click on Partipate in Teleconferences, about half way down the page The 2009 Schedule is available. All are on Wednesdays, from 1-2 pm Eastern time. Cost is $125 per teleconference, or if order all 11 by Jan. 27, 2009, it's only $1100, which is $100 each. You can have as many people listen as you want, and they all earn CE certificates. (If you have 10 people working in your lab, that bring the cost down to $12.50 per person for each to earn 1 hour CE. The Jan 2009 is Working with Difficult People, so invite everyone from all the labs and the pathology office and the pathologists, and everyone can learn to get along with earning 1 hour CE!) About 1 week before the teleconference, your lab will be sent a link to the PowerPoint and any additional handouts. The day of the talk, call up a phone number, listen to the speaker through speaker phone and be able to ask questions, and have everyone sign in, which is then faxed to NSH. Everyone who attended and signed in earns 1 hour CE. About 1-2 months after the teleconference, the lab will receive a CD with the PowerPoint, speaker's talks, any additional handouts, and a 4 question test. So if anyone couldn't attend the original teleconference, they can sit down when there is some free time in the lab, listen to the conference, view the PowerPoint, read the additional handouts, and now take a 4 question test, which they take and fax/mail into NSH, and they can get 1 hour CE, up to 2 years later. Also, your lab now has good training modules for anyone at any time. Peggy A.

Re: [Histonet] training materials
I would be very interested in these suggestions as well, as we would like to improve the quality of skin embedding. Thanks!

Re: [Histonet] training materials
The AFIP book (Laboratory Methods in Histotechnology, edited by Edna Prophet, et al) has nice chapters on specimen orientation and embedding It is not really a training manual, but it has some nice pictures as to how certain tissues should be placed into the molds.
