“Using conventional in-person education modalities to adding topics related to substance use disorders to medical school curriculum, or simply expanding training to greater numbers of individuals is challenging and often faculty intensive. In our article we demonstrate that online administered opioid overdose prevention training produced not meaningfully different outcomes from in-person administered opioid overdose prevention training. We believe that this provides evidence of further expanding opioid overdose prevention training by using online training modalities to be less resource intense and more easily disseminated. This article further adds to the new and growing research comparing online and in-person modalities for education.“
