  3. Purpose of CBTAT Workgroup • Build the capacity of cancer control planners and public health professionals to locate, select, adopt, adapt, implement and evaluate evidence-based cancer prevention programs, policies and practices through training and technical assistance • Advance the knowledge of models of capacity building and evaluate training or technical assistance initiatives in translating evidence-based approaches into communities

  4. Training Curriculum Development • Combining collective knowledge/expertise across centers from past trainings and local examples • Developing standardized, interactive training materials forin-person and webinar workshops (for varying durations) • Sharing multiple web resources to locate sources of evidence • Including case studies and exercises that provide hands-on applications for learning transfer • Finalizing training slides, speaker’s notes, activities and supporting resources with workgroup members

  5. Overall Learning Objectives • Discuss what “evidence” means • Learn how to use needs assessments to develop goals and objectives • Describe different evaluation methods to consider when planning implementation • Identify sources to find evidence-based chronic disease prevention strategies • Assess the fit between potential approaches and the organization and population • Describe steps in the adaptation process • Develop an implementation work plan that integrates RE-AIM evaluation measures

  6. “Putting Evidence into Action” Curriculum

  7. Supporting Components • Facilitator’s Guide • Speaker’s Notes • How-to instructions per session (e.g., activities) • Glossary • Resource List

  8. CBTAT Cross Center Trainings

  9. CBTAT Cross Center Trainings (cont.)

  10. Upcoming CBTAT Cross Center 2013 Training Workshops

  11. Research & Evaluation • Collaborate with the development and evaluation of TACTICC • Discuss long-term evaluation methods and plans • Mini-grants to use evidence-based approaches • Share different models of training/TA offered to communities • Describe evaluation models • Discuss other potential research gaps/evaluation questions for use of mini-grants to increase use of evidence

  13. Next Steps & Discussion • Community Guide has approached us to make parts of our training available via an online format • What do centers think about that possibility? • How else should we disseminate our training? • Is there interest in creating a sub-group about mini-grants processes, TA methods, and/or potential publications?
