LGBTQ eLearning module: What we found - Knowledge acquisition and attainment of learning outcomes

We compared participants’ average response ratings to the pre- and post-training statements and found that the majority of participants (88%) reported increased knowledge, confidence and skills to understand and respond to the unique needs of LGBTQ communities (see Figure 1).

Knowledge, confidence and skills acquisition was also be demonstrated with 100% of participants indicating that the learning objectives were partially or entirely met (see Figure 2).

These findings indicate that participants have increased capability to respond to the unique needs of LGBTQ communities with cancer and provide care that meets their needs in a timely manner, with compassion and respect.
