Leading health care by Developing, Implementing and Evaluating Innovations in Service Delivery

In this course, participants will be introduced to the full cycle of developing, implementing and evaluating innovations in service delivery, using an implementation science framework.
Participants will learn the skills required to develop a research proposal on service delivery innovations that coud lead to results that will have the potential for implementation in routine care and can be adopted to a given context.
Participants will benefit from understanding how to choose an appropriate implementation framework, will understand hybrid designs types, assessment of intervention fidelity, and tailoring interventions to the local context.
