PEP Talks
APPTA fosters the capacity for innovation in aging policy and practice by providing development opportunities for researchers and policy makers that enhances their ability to impact change. PEP Talks is an interactive, e-learning series for researchers to enhance their knowledge translation skills. This program is comprised of 3 main webinars targeting specific KT skills: how to effectively articulate research findings; how to prepare a policy brief on research findings; and how to present to policy stakeholders.
The final component of this program provides participants with a chance to facilitate their own webinar with policy stakeholders and put their learned tools into practice. By providing researchers with a direct opportunity to present their work to policy-makers, we hope to facilitate evidence-informed decision-making in aging and technology.
