Knowledge translation (KT) training needs practical workplace learning, not just academic study. Integrating practice-based learning enhances professional development for population health knowledge translation.
Area of Science:
- Public Health
- Knowledge Translation (KT)
Context:
- Current KT training predominantly occurs in academic settings.
- Quebec health managers and population health researchers desire practical, workplace-based KT learning.
- A gap exists between academic KT education and real-world application.
Purpose:
- To advocate for the integration of practice-based learning into KT training.
- To address the expressed need for workplace-relevant KT skill development.
- To align KT education with professional development principles and constructivist pedagogy.
Summary:
- Academic KT training is insufficient for real-world application.
- Workplace-based learning is crucial for effective knowledge translation.
- A blended approach combining academic and practical learning is recommended.
Impact:
- Enhanced professional development for KT practitioners.
- Improved implementation of research findings in health and social services.
- More effective knowledge translation strategies in population health.
