Abstract:
Rapidly changing technology in the clinical microbiology laboratory requires a highly skilled workforce. The current clinical microbiology workforce is aging with a wave of retirements currently unfolding. Key competencies that will be needed for the next generation of microbiologists include strong analytical skills, adaptability, and the willingness to be life-long learners. Experiential learning is a key component of the initial learning environment for medical laboratory scientists and technicians. Continuing education in clinical microbiology must reflect the changes in technology whereby learners are more comfortable in an electronic learning environment, such as TED Talks and YouTube.
