This study in rural China examined whether a combination of online and in-person training could improve village health workers’ ability to advise families on feeding young children. After the training, the quality of counselling improved greatly, with health workers reporting better knowledge, skills, and confidence. Families in the trained areas were also more likely to provide children with a varied and adequate diet, and caregivers were satisfied with the support they received. The study suggests that combining online and in-person training can strengthen health workers’ ability to support healthy feeding practices.
