Executive address
A/Prof Marcus Watson / Executive Director, CSDS
Time, cost and quality. The three main objectives of most
businesses but also the context of one of the greatest
problems. How do you provide a quality product that is
affordable that can be produced quickly? Common belief
is that you can only ever achieve two out of these three,
however the team at the Clinical Skills Development Service
(CSDS) is continually striving to achieve all three. Not a
small task and not something that is taken lightly.
Whether we are developing a new course around
communication for International Medical Graduates,
providing quality assurance to the delivery of simulation
education across the state or improving a participants
journey as they complete a blended course, we always
question ourselves in relation to can we do this better?
Can we reduce the cost and pass these savings on?, and
how can we shorten the time that it takes for us to do
this? This culture is ingrained in everything that we do
and the clinicians, and therefore the patients, are reaping
the benefits.

Training Pathways
In a time when people want greater flexibility, and greater
recognition of their prior learning, training pathways are
becoming more popular. In essence, a training (or learning)
pathway is a route of learning chosen by the learner, which
allows them to build knowledge and proficiency as they go.
The holistic aim of training pathways is to move control of
choice away from the facilitator to the learner, providing
them with greater power of choice of what, how and when
they learn.
Training pathways build on an individuals knowledge
and skill progressively through a number of learning
approaches, such as eLearning, face to face and blended
delivery methods. They break down a larger training gap
into smaller, more manageable components that can be
completed separately. Although some pathways are strictly
structured with each component being a pre-requisite for
the next, others provide a more unstructured group of
components where the participant can transition from one
course to another with minimal to no constraints around
which ones they are to complete next. Some pathways
provide the option for learners to choose elective modules,
allowing for them to cater to their personal learning needs
or specific interest
For clinical staff, there is nothing new about training
pathways; a variety of pathways are offered to achieve
all different specialties. Medical practitioners wishing to
go into general practice can achieve this in a number of
ways, for instance, they can train as a GP registrar through
the Australian Defence Force (ADF), or if they are based in
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and/or
remote and isolated communities throughout Australia, they
can access the Remote Vocational Training Scheme (RVTS).

Celebrating
10 years
with CSDS
The Clinical Skills Development Service (CSDS) has been
delivering education to Queensland Health staff and
external healthcare providers for over 10 years. Opening
its doors in 2004, at the Royal Brisbane and Womens
Hospital, the Skills Development Centre (SDC) was the
largest of its kind in the world, with considerable simulation
and audiovisual capacity. With the success of a range
of simulation courses and high demand for courses and
simulation, the focus of CSDS quickly changed from the
concept of a single site providing the simulation training
for all of Queensland Health, to CSDS providing a service;
supporting the development of simulation capacity across
the state.
Staff recollections of
CSDSs early days
When the centre opened, there were 14 staff on
board. Fast forward to 2016 and there is currently
forty-two staff. In this edition, we hear from some of
the employees who have been here with CSDS since
the early years

The Cairns Skills Centre (CSC) - Our story
The Cairns Hospital Skills Centre is one of the original
nine affiliate Skills Centres that was rolled out by the
Skills Development Centre (SDC), now the Clinical Skills
Development Service (CSDS), in 2006. An inventory of
simulation equipment was delivered to Cairns Hospital
and was housed in a 75m2 space in Block B, which was an
empty space at that stage (formerly occupational therapy).
I was working as an Emergency Department Nurse
Educator at the time and developed an interest in clinical
simulation after attending an Emergency Crisis Resource
Management (ECRM) course at SDC. This interest
motivated me to develop the vacant space into a scenario
room, control room and debrief room using an original
portable audiovisual (AV) system and resources provided
by the CSDS.
During 2006/2007 support from CSDS, clinicians, educators
and our executive crystallised. In May 2008, the Cairns
Skills Centre (CSC) was established when I was appointed
as Nurse Educator/Nurse Manager and an Administration
Support Officer (Deidre White) was also appointed. Having
administration officer support is vital and has been a key
factor in the success of this centre.
Six months later a permanent Simulation Coordinator (Emy
Dezen) joined the crew. This position was initially funded
and managed by CSDS then in 2010 it transferred to the
Cairns Skills Centre, and came under my management. In
this same year, CSDS introduced a Pocket Simulation Centre
(PSC) distributive model. From 2011 until the end of 2013
the Cairns and Hinterland Health and Hospital Service
(CHHHS)/James Cook University Queensland Health, Health
Workforce Australia-Simulated Learning Environments
Project provided a temporary boost of simulation
coordinator staffing and extra simulation assets.
The CHHHS purchased a vehicle in 2013 for our centre to
provide outreach simulation activities across our HHS. So far

Strategic
planning
Simon says
The Clinical Skills Development Service (CSDS) recently held
two workshops dedicated to the development of the CSDS
Strategic Plan. An external consultancy group facilitated
these workshops with input from key stakeholders around
the State.
The first half-day workshop held on the 28 January,
was targeted at the CSDS Management Team with the
deliberate outcomes of addressing internal capabilities,
analysing external trends, identifying future focuses and
success markers, and then consolidating this with getting
into motion.
The second half-day workshop held on the 10 February
was targeted at key stakeholders, educational facilities,
Department of Health organisations and Hospital and
Health Services. This workshop, held at CSDS, hosted 25
attendees from around the State. The group discussed
existing strengths, future opportunities, future technologies
and key insights grouped into the themes of Discover,
Dream, Design and Deliver.
Both of these workshops involved healthy discussions
around the CSDS products, services and future. The final
report for the strategic plan has been provided to the
CSDS Executive Director for review and discussion with
the Management Team. This report will be published on
the CSDS website in the coming weeks and we welcome
you to read this document and see where we are going in
the future.
