What will the training cover?
Partnering with health consumers on your research increases the impact you will have on people’s lives and the health system as a whole. Increasingly, research funders are looking for research projects that demonstrate a real and authentic collaboration with health consumers. Register to learn how to involve health consumers in your research. Learn skills and strategies that you can use to create supportive and productive partnerships to take your research to the next level.
