Knowledge Transfer Strategy - SRA Training
25/9/08
Researchers are increasingly under pressure 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 centre or 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.
Before the course participants will be asked to complete a short survey on their knowledge transfer experience. After the course the tutors will be available for up to three months to provide free advice to participants (by phone or email) on developing their knowledge transfer strategy.
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.
