BACKGROUND
Health care is the fastest growing occupational sector in the United States, but students from low-income and underrepresented minority (URM) backgrounds often lack mentorship and basic information about health care careers and pathways.
OBJECTIVES
We developed the Career 911 massive open online course (MOOC) to help students from diverse backgrounds to explore and build career portfolios to enter health-related professions.
METHODS
We describe the evolution since 2014 of the Career 911 MOOC and lessons learned.Results/Lessons Learned: More than20,000 students have enrolled in Career 911. Career 911 has served as a learning resource for schools and health care pipeline programs. Key lessons learned include cultivating strategic partnerships and networks, using community engagement efforts to counter technology's potential to exacerbate educational disparities, minimizing disruptions from changes to technology, and optimizing data for program evaluation.
CONCLUSIONS
Lessons learned on community engagement to develop a MOOC, and anticipating technology-related challenges and program evaluation needs can guide future work to leverage MOOCs and other digital learning technologies for scaling health care workforce development.
背景
医疗保健是美国增长最快的职业领域，但来自低收入和代表性不足的少数族裔（URM）背景的学生往往缺乏关于医疗保健职业和途径的指导以及基本信息。
目标
我们开发了“职业911”大规模开放在线课程（MOOC），以帮助来自不同背景的学生探索并建立职业档案，从而进入与健康相关的职业领域。
方法
我们描述了自2014年以来“职业911”MOOC的发展历程及所吸取的经验教训。
结果/经验教训：超过20000名学生注册了“职业911”课程。“职业911”已成为学校和医疗保健人才培养项目的学习资源。吸取的关键经验教训包括建立战略合作伙伴关系和网络、利用社区参与活动应对技术可能加剧教育差距的问题、尽量减少技术变革带来的干扰，以及优化用于项目评估的数据。
结论
在开发MOOC过程中关于社区参与以及应对与技术相关的挑战和项目评估需求所吸取的经验教训，可为未来利用MOOC和其他数字学习技术扩大医疗保健劳动力发展规模的工作提供指导。
