Research Pathway - Level 1
Summary
The pathway aims:
- To allow a progressive build from the basic introduction to research and research methods for participants with little or no post-graduate research experience to the more advanced level which may be of specific interest to those with more research experience who want a refresher or need focused training on a specific topic.
- To cover the range of knowledge and skills required to embark on a career as an intensive care researcher.
The pathway includes 3 levels from “Introduction to critical care research” (Level 1), to “Nuts and bolts of critical care research design” (Level 2), and Project Design: From Theory to Implementation (Level 3).
It targets: intensive care trainees, qualified intensivists, intensive care nurses and allied health professionals who wish to learn how to conduct and appraise research in intensive care.
The pathway is proposed in compliance with CoBATRICE (Competency Based Training programme in Intensive Care Medicine), but is intended to go beyond this to develop the ICU researchers of the future (https://www.esicm.org/education/cobatrice/).
The classroom will stay open for 3 months after the Live Event. A pre-test will be open 72 hours in advance and will close the first day of the course. The course will be followed by a post-test, available 72 hours post-course along with the quality assessment questionnaire. Pre and post evaluation results will be evaluated to measure the training impact.
Enjoy!
