Beyond the Product: How to Train Clinicians for Real Engagement

A great product is more than just a sleek UI; it’s about crafting a seamless learning journey that fits naturally into your clinicians’ workflow and truly supports them in delivering better care.

So, how do you make sure your training doesn’t feel like “just one more thing” on their plate, and clinicians use your product more confidently and consistently? 

Let me walk you through a proven approach I used with a client who faced these exact challenges. 

For my client, clinician engagement was dropping off fast: training was too long, content was a confusing mix of tasks and theory, and the delivery tool was clunky.

Here’s how we turned things around—and how you can, too.

1. Start with an Audit

I began with a comprehensive training audit to pinpoint exactly where clinicians were disengaging. By speaking with both internal and external stakeholders, I got a 360° view of the process, identified critical gaps, and checked if tools and metrics truly matched clinicians’ needs.

2. Revise the Training Journey

Before creating any new content, I mapped out a clear, clinician-centered training journey, not just for onboarding, but for ongoing support and mentorship. I made sure to account for clinicians’ time constraints and real-world workflow, so training fit seamlessly into their day.

3. Develop Workflow-Driven Content

I built content that spoke directly to clinicians’ daily routines, showing exactly how the product fits into their workflow. I separated “how-to” tasks from deeper learning, and kept domain knowledge distinct from product knowledge. This made training more relevant, actionable, and easy to digest.

4. Choose the Right Tools

Not all training platforms are created equal. I evaluated the best way to deliver training and ultimately chose a Learning Management System (LMS) that worked for their needs. If you already have an app, consider whether training can be delivered right where clinicians already are.

5. Test, Launch, and Iterate

We piloted the revamped training with a select group of clinicians, gathered feedback, and made improvements before a full rollout.

Results

• Onboarding time was reduced by 50%.

• Clinicians felt more confident and supported, both during onboarding and beyond.

• Ongoing mentorship allowed them to ask questions and maximize the product’s value.
