“…Olson et al (2014) presented 12 fi delity criteria for practicing OD. Unlike fi ndings from the Collaborative Network Approach (CNA) study and Parachute projects, in which the authors pointed to a resistance of the OD model to fi delity criteria and standardization (Florence et al, 2020;Hopper et al, 2020), participants in our study found the 12 fi delity criteria to be helpful elements in the training program. Together with the key markers developed by Eiterå et al (2014), these "manuals" helped participants get a grip on the OD approach.…”

“…There are no standardized programs or manuals that describe how to conduct a training program in OD and this might be a challenge to those trying to implement the OD approach (Florence et al, 2020). Despite this challenge, local implementation practices have been developed in different contexts around the world (Buus et al, 2017).…”

“…According to Buus et al (2017), most of the fi delity criteria constructed for OD were not designed in such a way that they could be used in standardized measurements. Seikkula and Arnkil (2013) point out that context is an important factor in research studies, as does the CNA study (Florence et al, 2020) and the Parachute project (Hopper et al, 2020). Implementation science in general shows that implementation projects are most effective when tailoring a program fi t for the exact context (Flottorp & Aakhus, 2013).…”

“…The training program in the CNA study (Florence et al, 2020), and the Parachute project (Hopper et al, 2020) included experienced trainers from Europe, which was deemed necessary but costly. Our hospital and surrounding municipalities have invested in educational OD courses for decades, but participation has been limited by costs.…”

“…They recommend studies examining specifi c models and frameworks, which can advise support and stronger evidence base for communication skills training in psychiatry. There are some studies describing professionals' experiences with the implementation process of OD (Aaltonen et al, 2011, Bergström et al, 2017Buus et al, 2017;Florence et al, 2020;Hopper et al, 2020;Schubert et al, 2020;Seikkula et al, 2006;Seikkula et al, 2011;Ulland et al, 2013), but as far as we know, no studies have described participants' experiences with an OD training program. Therefore, the current article aims to explore and describe participants' experiences in an OD training program.…”

Open dialogue (OD) is a family-oriented approach that has demonstrated good outcomes in treatment of fi rst-episode psychosis. OD focuses on communication as a joint process of constructing meaning among patients, their social networks, and professionals. The current study investigates how 42 participants experienced a training program in OD. The study comprises a cohort with a longitudinal design. Data were collected by means of semi-structured questionnaires and contained quantitative and qualitative data. Descriptive analysis was performed to analyze quantitative data and thematic analysis for qualitative data. Findings show that participants' learning outcomes and confi dence with using OD with patients, social networks, and professionals increased signifi cantly throughout the training program. Refl ection and role play were essential learning methods. Participants defi ned themselves as in-progress and considered the training program educational, engaging, and varied. Three main themes arose from the data: Developing an OD Training Program, Competence Development "From Novice to Expert, " and Participation and Commitments. [Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, xx(x), xx-xx.] O pen dialogue (OD) is a familyoriented, early intervention approach that has demonstrated good outcomes in the treatment of fi rst-episode psychosis (Aaltonen et al., 2011; Bergstrøm et al., 2017; Seikkula et al., 2006; Seikkula et al., 2011). The fi rst OD approach appeared in Western Lapland, Finland, with the primary goal to create a comprehensive, psychotherapeutically oriented model of treatment within the public mental health sector to address the real and changing needs of fi rst-contact schizophrenia patients and their families (Aaltonen et al., 2011). The principles of OD are now incorporated in all psychiatric treatment in the region, regardless of diagnoses (Seikkula, 2003). The OD approach eases the accessibility of mental health
