Abstract
An online advanced training for professionals within the healthcare sector was developed including a problem statement to be solved following the steps of problem-based learning (PBL).The findings show that it is feasible to transfer PBL electronically (ePBL) where participants favoured the flexibility and time independency of ePBL. However, the evaluation revealed issues with the learning platform, insufficient technical conditions in the hospitals and a lack of personal exchange. Thus, ePBL offers advantages especially for advanced training in the healthcare sector but requires adaptations and the necessary technical prerequisites.
