2015 KT Conference: Knowledge Translation Solutions for Overcoming Barriers to Research Use
October 26-30, 2015   |   Organized by: SEDL's Center on Knowledge Translation for Disability and Rehabilitation Research (KTDRR)
Date/Time: October 26, 28, & 30, 2015
Description: Knowledge Translation Solutions for Overcoming Barriers to Research Use. Knowledge translation (KT) strategies are used by grantees funded by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) to share their research with a variety of audiences. KT activities are used to create a change in awareness, behavior, or action on the part of the identified audience. This online conference is designed to help grantees to identify both barriers to the use of their NIDILRR-funded research and strategies to overcome them. The conference is oriented toward resolving problems or limitations in KT activities of NIDILRR-funded grantees and other researchers. (We have requested pre-approval for 9.5 hours CRC-CEUs, which would also apply for viewing the conference archives.)
Monday October 26 - Understanding Your Audiences and Their Needs
