An evaluation of the training module of an interactive infection control computer-assisted learning (CAL) software program was carried out with ward-based nurses, third-year medical students and infection control personnel. All nursing staff, 87% of the medical students and all infection control staff found the programme easy and enjoyable to use. The module was accessed 3101 times on the hospital network in 18 months with usage settling to between 100-150 times per month. There was a higher level of use by night-duty and weekend staff. Medical students gained as much infection control knowledge from using the CAL package (increase in correct responses from 63.5% to 83.4%;P<0.0001) as they did from a formal lecture (increase in correct responses from 62.1% to 79.5%;P<0.0001). We conclude the training module which is accessible on the hospital wards and across the academic network, is a convenient and effective way for staff and students to gain a basic understanding in evidence-based infection control practices, at locations and times suitable for them.
