In Australian general practice vocational training, external clinical teaching visits (ECTVs) are key observation-based WBAs. Traditionally, ECTVs are conducted face-to-face, but the COVID-19 pandemic saw the development and implementation of remote ECTV modalities. It remains unknown if perceived educational utility of remote ECTVs differs from traditional face-to-face ECTVs. This study explored the educational utility of ECTVs, including face-to-face and remote formats.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>General practice trainees (\u2018registrars\u2019) and external clinical teaching visitors (\u2018ECT visitors', who are independent experienced GP observers) each completed a cross-sectional questionnaire following individual ECTVs undertaken in 2020. Outcomes included overall educational utility of the ECTV as perceived by registrars, registrar ratings of likelihood to change their clinical practice as a result of the ECTV, registrar ratings of likelihood to change their approach to learning\/training as a result of the ECTV, and overall educational utility of the ECTV as perceived by the ECT visitor. Educational utility ratings (5-point scales) were analysed descriptively. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression were employed to examine factors associated with dichotomised educational utility ratings.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Response rates were 41% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009801) for registrars and 39% (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009742) for ECT visitors. Most registrars (64.1%) rated ECTV overall educational utility as \u2018very useful\u2019; 58.5% and 47.9% of registrars rated their likelihood to change practice and approach to learning\/training, respectively, as \u2018very likely\u2019. No statistically significant differences in perceived educational utility ratings were identified between face-to-face and remote video\/phone ECTVs (multivariable p-value range: .07-.96). Receiving feedback that was focused\/specific\/easy to translate into action was consistently associated with registrars\u2019 rating overall educational utility as \u2018very useful\u2019 (odds ratio (OR): 12.8, 95% confidence interval (CI): 8.26 to19.9), rating likelihood to change practice as \u2018very likely\u2019 (OR: 2.5, 95%CI: 1.59 to 3.94), and rating likelihood to change learning\/training approach as \u2018very likely\u2019 (OR: 3.19, 95%CI: 1.97 to 5.17).<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>ECTVs are perceived by registrars and ECT visitors to be educationally useful across different delivery modalities and formats.
