Building this capacity can help primary care providers better meet the needs of their seriously ill patients; however, there has been limited in-depth study as to the added benefits of active facilitation in on-line education. We completed a qualitative inquiry with CAPACITI participants to explore perceived differences in self-directed and facilitated e-learning to understand how these modalities contribute to change in practice.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We completed a qualitative analysis of semi-structured focus groups with primary care teams that participated in CAPACITI. This study was part of a cluster randomized controlled trial where teams were randomized to self-directed or facilitated modalities for each of the three CAPACITI modules. We followed a qualitative descriptive design, using a constant comparative approach to determine emergent themes to understand participant experience and preference in learning modality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted 63 focus groups throughout the trial, representing 42 unique teams, about a quarter of which had experienced both learning modalities at the time of the focus group. Qualitative analysis revealed three main themes: changes in thinking (ie identifying patients early in the illness trajectory), change in behavior (ie increased collaboration), and preference in learning modality and perceived benefits. Interestingly, we found no overwhelming preference in learning modality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Self-directed and facilitated learning modalities were both perceived as effective in promoting changes in thinking and behavior among primary care providers across diverse care settings.
