ABOUT THE TRIG MODEL

The “TRIG model” is a structured approach to developing resources for genomics education.

The “TRIG model” provides a structured, team-based learning approach to genomics education through resources developed by multidisciplinary committees including representatives from leading healthcare professional organizations. More than 50 TRIG model-related workshops, recognized as an “educational innovation,” have trained over 2,000 participants worldwide. Accessible Instructor Handbooks and Toolkits support local implementation, with over 4,000 downloads across 90 countries. There have been over 10 TRIG model-related manuscripts, with support from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI).
