About the Course
Organizations invest in research because they want results they can demonstrate in implementation settings, not findings that sit in a report. To do that, you need to show capabilities in implementation mapping, determinant analysis, stakeholder engagement, adaptation planning, and outcomes tracking using frameworks such as CFIR, RE-AIM, and Diffusion of Innovations. This dissemination and implementation research training gives you a structured way to explain why a practice spreads slowly, what context blocks uptake, and which strategy is most likely to work in your setting.
The course turns scattered knowledge into a practical system for D&I work. You will practice using CFIR to assess barriers, RE-AIM to frame evaluation, and implementation strategies to design an action plan for adoption and sustainment. You will also build tangible outputs such as a dissemination plan, stakeholder matrix, implementation logic model, and measurement dashboard. In direct terms, this course teaches you how to diagnose a translation problem, design a context-aware implementation response, and report results in a format decision-makers can act on.
This training is built for professionals who work under real constraints: limited budgets, incomplete data, unstable staffing, and pressure to show results quickly. It is also relevant where digital platforms, remote collaboration, and AI-assisted literature screening or evidence synthesis are changing how dissemination and implementation teams operate. The course stays practical by focusing on what you can apply immediately, while introducing advanced concepts such as pragmatic trial design and hybrid effectiveness-implementation approaches at an operational level rather than claiming full research-method mastery in five days.
Target Audience
This course is designed for professionals who need to move evidence into routine use, evaluate uptake, and report credible implementation results. It suits people who already work with interventions, programs, or research evidence and now need a structured D&I research approach.
- Implementation Scientist responsible for designing CFIR-based studies
- Health Services Researcher tracking RE-AIM adoption and reach
- Program Manager coordinating evidence-based practice rollout
- Quality Improvement Specialist measuring fidelity and sustainment
- Public Health Research Officer translating findings into field delivery
- Monitoring and Evaluation Specialist building implementation indicators
- Clinical Trial Coordinator supporting pragmatic and hybrid studies
- Community Engagement Lead aligning stakeholder input with implementation plans
- Evidence Synthesis Analyst preparing dissemination briefs and summaries
- Research and Policy Advisor reporting implementation findings to decision-makers
Course Objectives
This course equips you to plan, execute, and measure dissemination and implementation research initiatives that improve adoption, strengthen fidelity, and support sustained use of evidence-based practice.
- Assess implementation barriers using CFIR domains and contextual determinant data.
- Apply RE-AIM to frame reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance.
- Design a stakeholder-informed dissemination plan with audience segments and message channels.
- Build an implementation logic model linking strategies, mechanisms, and outcomes.
- Evaluate feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity using pragmatic implementation measures.
- Navigate community, practitioner, and leadership requirements in multi-stakeholder D&I projects.
- Implement digital evidence-tracking workflows for literature screening and implementation monitoring.
- Synthesize findings into a concise implementation brief and decision-maker report.
Requirements & Prerequisites
Recommended prerequisites: working knowledge of research methods, program delivery, or quality improvement; familiarity with basic data interpretation; and comfort reading implementation studies. Coding is not required for completion. Participants should bring a laptop for framework exercises, template completion, and digital review of case materials. Advanced topics such as pragmatic trial design and mixed methods are taught at an operational level, with emphasis on selecting and applying the right approach rather than statistical engineering.

Training Methodology
This is a practical, outcome-driven course designed to turn dissemination and implementation research aspiration into measurable action and credible reporting.
Methodology includes:
- Calculate adoption and reach metrics using RE-AIM worksheet data.
- Simulate a slow adoption scenario with staffing, fidelity, and budget constraints.
- Diagnose a case study with CFIR determinant checklist and barrier mapping.
- Map stakeholder influence, reporting lines, and implementation approval pathways.
- Analyze health care, public health, education, and social service cases.
- Develop a team implementation plan, logic model, and measurement tracker.
- Challenge current dissemination practice using implementation evidence and benchmark findings.
