Leveraging technologies to upskill primary care providers in person-centred pain care

There is a critical need to upskill primary care providers to enable timely high-quality care for children, youth, and adults living with pain. Leveraging technologies has the potential to increase accessibility of pain education as part of continuing professional development. In this paper, we highlight 2 digitally enabled education strategies-Project Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (synchronous) and eLearning pain training (asynchronous). Emerging areas of interest for education and research are also highlighted including blended synchronous and asynchronous pain education; the use of artificial intelligence tools to create personalised and engaging eLearning experiences; and consumers as partners in the development, implementation, and evaluation of digitally enabled pain education.
