Evidence-informed policy-making training package
There are several different aspects to undertaking evidence-informed policy-making and the specific context of your role will determine which skills you will need to undertake this. To facilitate access to useful resources we have created an evidence-informed policy-making training package, which is a curated collection of publicly available resources that have been reviewed and included based on their quality and relevance. These have been arranged into smaller, topic-specific training packages, designed to support skills development in a way that can be tailored to your needs.
The individual training packages follow the same broad structure. They contain a subset of core materials that ensure all key topics are covered, as well as supplementary materials, to promote additional reading and facilitate a deeper understanding of the topic. The format of the available training material varies between and within packages. Interactive training materials have been prioritized; however, there are instances where content on a particular topic is spread across different formats.
Both the structure and content of this training package have been developed to respond to the needs of different stakeholders, including researchers and policy-makers. The training route flowchart guides you to courses and resources relevant to your needs. Whether you are interested in refreshing your knowledge or looking for new tools to support your work, there are resources here to help you strengthen your skillsets for evidence-informed policy-making (EIPM).
We aim to improve and update this training package and welcome your feedback and suggestions for inclusion of other materials that could be added to the EIPM package.
Let us know if you have encountered any issues while accessing the content of the EIPM training package.
