In this dynamic, virtual learning environment, you’ll get everything you need to start addressing effective implementation in your work! Prior to the start of this live training series, participants will receive a pre-recorded webinar where they will learn the research foundation and key principles of Implementation Science and why building implementation capacity is important in achieving long term outcomes for communities. For homework and preparation for the live 5-part series, participants will assess their organization’s implementation capacity and identify opportunities to strengthen the dynamics that lead to successful outcomes. 

Each week will include a 2-hour live Zoom session where we will dive deep into concepts of the 5 Dynamics of Effective Implementation™. Each workshop series is complete with the concepts, tools, and strategies that you can immediately apply in your work. Be prepared to try these out in practice and bring your experiences back to the live sessions to discuss. 

Two weeks prior to the first live session, the registered participant will receive an email from ACJI Staff with instructions on how to watch the pre-recorded webinar and to complete the pre-course homework assignment. Please note that tickets are non-refundable however if a situation arises in which you are no longer able to attend on these dates, your ticket can be transferred to a future class.
