Roadway Characteristics Inventory Training

Florida Department of Transportation - Transportation Data Analytics Office

The Transportation Statistics Office provides training for district data collection technicians in both office- and field-based Roadway Characteristics Inventory methods.They were exploring ways to reduce training costs related to travel. CIMES conducted competency research and then developed a curriculum that is built around work scenarios and uses virtual mentors to guide trainees through various tasks. Trainees "travel" down virtual roadways while examining and collecting data. They use virtual forms and enter data into computer systems using highly interactive software simulations.

Florida Tobacco Control Clearinghouse

Florida Department of Health

The mission of the Division of Health Awareness and Tobacco was to reduce the use of tobacco products in Florida. The division had taken the lead in Tobacco Free Florida programs and partnerships, but needed to re-envision its systems to maximize resources, ensure accountability, and promote collaboration among its partners across Florida. CIMES created a centralized, web-based resource center, the Florida Tobacco Control Clearinghouse, and related resources to support the division’s information management and communication needs.

Open Doors Outreach Network Training

Voices for Florida

The Open Doors Outreach Network was launched by Voices for Florida in 2016 as part of a coordinated effort to address service gaps for victims of sexual exploitation and trafficking. Through a network of partner organizations, ODON provides a coordinated system of care that is supported by trauma-competent best practices and translational research. The Open Doors model uses teams that consist of a survivor-mentor, a regional representative, and a clinician. CIMES developed training to support the development of knowledge and skills that ensure fidelity to ODON’s service model, leading to standardized quality care regardless of location.

Traffic Forecasting Training

Florida Department of Transportation - Transportation Data Analytics Office

The FDOT central office needed to create a more standardized process for traffic forecasting by implementing a common training course across all Florida districts. CIMES carried out a four-month research project using techniques that included a job task analysis, focus groups, office observations, and in-depth interviews. This process culminated in the generation of a preliminary competency model that was validated by a team of traffic analyst experts. Twelve cases at varying degrees of difficulty and in various project types were identified to be part of a scenario-based training approach. Tasks, knowledge, procedures, skills, tools, and other critical elements were identified for each case.

Open Doors Outreach Network Evaluation

Voices for Florida

The Voices for Florida Open Doors Outreach Network seeks to improve care, coordination, and outcomes for commercially sexually exploited and trafficked children. The network uses an innovative approach that engages teams of survivor-mentors, regional staff, and clinicians to provide 24/7 care to recovering victims. CIMES developed and performed a developmental evaluation to assess the effectiveness of the service model at the current pilot sites. The study also identified which aspects of the model need to be maintained and sustained as it is being implemented at new sites and which aspects of the model can be modified to fit the local needs of partner organizations.
