Robyn Preston, James Cook University
 Are you interested in getting into research or evaluation but do not know where to start? Is research or evaluation part of your job description but you have no formal qualifications? Do you think you are too busy to study?
Designed for busy practitioners, this course can be studied externally; part time over two to four years. Payment of all or part of the tuition fees may be deferred through HECS-HELP. The course will equip you to undertake research and evaluation in primary health care settings; covering qualitative and quantitative methodology, ethical and practical issues, critical appraisal and evidence based practice. You will also gain skills in effective proposal and grant writing for research funding as well as research dissemination through publications, conferences, the media and policy makers. This unique course gives you the option to engage in basic research and evaluation in your workplace or move to undertake higher level qualifications such as a research masters or PhD.
This course is part of the Primary Health Care Research Evaluation and Development Strategy funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing.
Our team has been supporting practitioners like you since 2001 and we invite you to be part of this exciting new course.
