Educational best practices.
There are few reports from the behavioral health field that focus on educational best practices. This article summarizes a panel presentation from the Annapolis Conference in which four different programs were described: (1) a provider educational initiative, (2) a tool-kit project related to evidence-based services, (3) a multidisciplinary faculty training program in addictions, and (4) an AIDS education project. While such innovative educational practices appear to be the exception rather than the norm, they do offer ideas and strategies for challenging and energizing current educational practices in behavioral health.
