Your AHRQ Grant Is Ending: What’s Next? (Technical Assistance Event)
Event Date:
July 12, 2011 | 2:00pm – 3:30pm ET
Overall Purpose:
Many AHRQ health information technology (IT) grantees continue their research projects beyond the formal end dates of their projects. Some grantees have created valuable health IT applications, tools, and other types of outputs that have shown positive results; however, they may not be aware of options available to them for dissemination, continued funding, and partnerships. This Webinar aimed to help grantees identify additional options to continue their work once funding from the AHRQ Health IT Portfolio ended.
The purpose of this event was to help grantees learn about:
- How the AHRQ Office of Communications and Knowledge Transfer (OCKT) can help grantees disseminate findings in traditional and nontraditional ways as their projects come to a close;
- Ways to think creatively about establishing partnerships beyond AHRQ for research dissemination and implementation as their projects end;
- Other organizations and funding sources that may fund ongoing research and support development of tools and other outputs; and
- Experiences of other grantees who have identified additional funding or engaged in partnerships to continue their work.
