Additionally, essential counseling skills, such as motivational interviewing, are often not included in medical education.<\/p>\n<p>Training programs focusing on lifestyle medicine and behavior change have proven effective in enhancing attitudes, knowledge, and confidence among clinicians, along with promoting behavioral counseling practices. However, there is a need for more research on the format, delivery, and incentivization of these training programs.<\/p>\n<p>The American College of Lifestyle Medicine introduced a 5.5-hour online training program in 2022, Lifestyle Medicine Essentials, as part of our commitment in support of the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health. This program serves to familiarize clinicians with lifestyle medicine and encourage its practice, meeting continuing education requirements for various healthcare professionals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Clinicians participating in the Lifestyle Medicine Essentials online course are invited to participate in a series of research surveys<\/strong> (before, immediately after, and 12 months following the education program). The surveys assess clinicians\u2019 knowledge, attitudes, and confidence about specific lifestyle medicine practices as well as their current practice behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>Findings from these surveys will be disseminated through the academic literature and advise future education opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","project_category":[96,29],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
