The learning objectives of this two-day virtual training are to understand relevant theories and frameworks, study designs, measures, and concepts related to policy implementation science and apply this knowledge to:
- Write a policy-focused implementation science grant
- Integrate a policy component or aim into a non-policy-focused implementation science grant or project
- Integrate an implementation science component or aim into a policy-focused grant or project
The training consists of synchronous didactic lectures, panel presentations and discussions, small group discussions, one-on-one consultations with experts and is structured around six modules:
- Historical and Contemporary Context of Policy D&I Research
- Theories and Frameworks for Policy D&I Research
- Research Designs and Analytic Approaches in Policy D&I Research
- Political Science Perspectives on Studying Policy Development, Implementation, and Equity
- Policy D&I Strategies and Interventions
- Measures, Data Sources, and Data Collection Strategies
The target audience for the training is researchers who:
A) have some expertise in implementation science and want to integrate policy into their work or
B) have some expertise in policy research and want to integrate implementation science into their work. The training is open to faculty and trainees at the post-doctoral level.
