SRA Training Course: Developing a Knowledge Transfer Strategy (Bill Solesbury and Annette Boaz) – 2 December 2009

Filed under: Information for Students, Training — graduateresearchschool @ 2:37 pm
Summary: Researchers are increasingly under pressure – from their employers or from research funders – to communicate their research to practitioners who might benefit from its application to their work, a process now known as knowledge transfer. Sometimes this requirement applies to the whole body of research of a research agency, research centreor research programme. These organisations then need to develop a strategy for knowledge transfer which can guide a range of communication activities by colleagues.This Advanced course focuses on the development of such a strategy.
Objectives: By the end of the workshop, delegates will:

  • understand the concept of knowledge transfer
  • develop a framework for a knowledge transfer strategy for their organisation
  • acquire tools and techniques for expressing the messages of research, identifying potential audiences and communicating effectively with them
  • learn approaches for assessing the impact of their organisation’s research
