Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) significantly impacts employment and work productivity, necessitating support for balancing treatment (SBWT). While SBWT systems have been formalized in Japan, awareness among healthcare professionals remains low. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational program on Hokkaido, Japan. A 2-year questionnaire-based was conducted across eight medical facilities from November 2022 2024. The program, comprising lecture-based self-directed learning formats, addressed six key components SBWT. Pre- post-program surveys assessed changes awareness, interest, behaviors related Pre-program low (36.7% doctors, 28.2% staff). Post-program, increased 81.3% 58.3%, respectively (p < 0.01). Interest improved several categories both groups, with greater gains staff. Behavioral changes, such as detailed employment-related consultations IBD patients reporting practices staff were observed but not statistically significant. Lecture-based more effective than methods, increasing engagement SBWT, particularly successfully enhanced interest methods proving These findings emphasize need tailored strategies based baseline knowledge. Future initiatives should focus sustaining knowledge acquisition, expanding programs nationwide, assessing long-term patient outcomes.
