Join ICTR’s Recruitment & Retention Resource Center this fall and winter for a virtual workshop series: “How We Talk With Research Participants: The Art of Communication.”
Each one-hour session of this five-part virtual series covers practical communication techniques that you can readily apply in your work to build stronger relationships with research participants and community members, increase understanding, and to improve recruitment and retention outcomes. Note: You do not need to attend all five sessions. Please select the sessions that are of interest to you.
All are welcome, including investigators, study team members, and those who communicate with research participants and community members. Sessions will be held on Sept. 23, Oct. 16, Oct. 30, Nov. 18 and Dec. 16.
