Our approach to KT is rooted in theory and science, but our application of KT is uniquely pragmatic and focused on real-world impact. Our approach to training involves presenting KT in a relevant and practical way so that individuals and organizations become empowered to support KT initiatives within their own network.Current & Upcoming
Introductory Course on Knowledge Synthesis for Knowledge Users
This course will teach students about knowledge synthesis in general, as well as how to conduct knowledge synthesis projects. Students will begin to conduct knowledge synthesis in the topic of their choice, with guidance from the course directors. Please note that the students will not be completing a full knowledge synthesis project during the duration of the course, due to course timelines.KT Canada Scientific Meeting

Testimonials
Practicing KT Student
Practicing KT is one of the most engaging and useful courses I’ve taken. It has equipped me with the theory, knowledge and tools to do effective KT, and to share what I’ve learned with my colleagues. Already, the course has had a positive impact on my organization. I feel excited about what we’ll be able to achieve.
Practicing KT StudentWhile we were completing the course we were at the same time applying a number of the lessons to support the development of our projects. We have received incredible feedback about these from other departments in our organization, our stakeholders, and other experts in the field.
Practicing KT StudentI really liked the engagement with other trainees and faculty members. It was a very collaborative experience.
KT Canada Summer Institute StudentI think the institute was structured very well. There was a good variety of lectures, workshops, and breaks. I never felt too overwhelmed or fatigued. The content was directly relevant to me and my work in patient engagement.
KT Canada Summer Institute StudentThe course was really well organized. The modules were a great resource and will continue to be amazing help throughout my academic career.
Introduction to Knowledge Synthesis for Knowledge Users StudentThe format was very user-friendly, and ideal when faced with a busy work schedule. It was flexible and allowed for the modules to be completed at one’s own pace. The marking guides for the assignments were excellent tools and greatly appreciated.
Introduction to Knowledge Synthesis for Knowledge Users StudentI appreciate the tools that were provided in this course that can assist with planning projects. I have a great deal of knowledge about education and knowledge translation, but it is grounded in other contexts – I found in particular the tools that were provided were really helpful in translating my knowledge into the health care context. I will change my planning and writing practices in future and use these a great deal. I also had little knowledge about journal metrics in a scientific context – so, the section on how to assess where to submit materials was really helpful, and will change how I look at where to send things.
End of Grant KT StudentIt was a really great course, I’d definitely recommend it to others!
End of Grant KT StudentAs a foundations course, this was an excellent course; I really appreciated the opportunities for learning through application (e.g., webinar examples of how to actually use a TMF – this was super helpful, as this tends to be a common challenge).
