Knowledge Translation for Researchers

COURSE SUMMARY

Do you want to enhance the impact of your research work? Are you looking for practical support to build your Knowledge Translation skills and understanding?

In association with the National Health and Medical Research Council’s Research Translation Symposium 2016, Public Health Insight is again offering a oneday training workshop exploring how to more effectively integrate Knowledge Translation into your research.

This practical workshop will provide an introduction to the evidence and issues related to the practice of knowledge translation, and will provide solution-oriented strategies to strengthen knowledge translation and exchange planning, broaden engagement with decision-makers, and deliver effective communications through active dissemination.

AIMS OF THE COURSE

  • Provide practical Knowledge Translation frameworks and enable researchers to implement the frameworks within the research plans and design
  • Build understanding and skills to support researchers’ efforts to develop meaningful and reciprocal relationships with policy and practice decision-makers/end-users
  • Provide researchers with skills and strategies for effectively communicating research methods and findings to non-academic audiences

If your research has policy and practice implications and has a health focus (e.g. clinical research, primary health research, public health research), this training course will be relevant and useful to you.
