    Abstract

    This study investigated pharmacy technicians’ perceptions of learning consultation skills following an innovative approach based on video-filmed simulated consultation scenarios with actors and the use of a virtual learning environment.

    This research showed that, although this approach was initially perceived as artificial, it was considered more effective than a traditional lecture-based approach.

    If consultation behaviours are to be improved to ensure consultations achieve their purpose, practical skills have to be taught and developed.
