Purpose: Widespread, quality genomics education for health professionals is required to create a competent genomic workforce. A lack of standards for reporting genomics education and evaluation limits the evidence base for replication and comparison. We therefore undertook a consensus process with the aim of developing a recommended minimum set of information to support consistent reporting of the design, development, delivery and evaluation of genomics education interventions.Methods: Draft standards were derived from the literature (25 items from 21 publications).Thirty-six international experts were purposively recruited and completed three rounds of a modified Delphi process to reach consensus on relevance, clarity, comprehensiveness, utility and design.
Results:The final standards include 18 items relating to development and delivery of genomics education interventions, 12 relating to evaluation, and one on stakeholder engagement.
Conclusion:These reporting item standards for education and evaluation of genomics (RISE2 Genomics) are intended to be widely applicable across settings and health professions. Their use by those involved in reporting genomics education interventions and evaluation, as well as their adoption by journals and policy makers as the expected standard, will support greater transparency, consistency and comprehensiveness of reporting.Consequently, the evidence base of genomics education will be more robust, enabling highquality genomics education and evaluation across a range of settings.
