Behavioral Intervention Short Course An Online Program

Unmet Need
The ‘Behavioral Intervention Short Course’ will provide foundational knowledge in developing, evaluating and implementing behavioral interventions through an online program.  This course is designed to be an approachable class for clinical researchers, faculty, pre-and post-doctoral students, and other investigators with limited experience in health related behavioral intervention research who are seeking to develop and advance a particular intervention to enhance the health and well-being of individuals, their family members, and/or communities.
 
Technology Overview
Johns Hopkins School of Nursing researchers developed an online program covering a variety of topics including:

• Understanding the continuum of intervention research from discovery and efficacy to implementation and sustainability
• Identifying delivery characteristics to advance an intervention protocol with implementation potential
• Examining how and when to involve community and practice-based partners
• Designing advance trials which include measurement, control groups, fidelity, and cost analyses
• Understanding principles of grant writing for behavioral intervention research

 
This online training will be offered as “on-demand” (self-paced), asynchronous format.  Learners will independently review online video lectures and content, as well as complete accompanying worksheets.  After completing the video lectures, learners have an option (for an additional fee) to participate in face-to-face small group sessions for one day held at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing.
