The course will follow the systematic review process as it applies, and is adapted to, qualitative evidence synthesis. The Programme Faculty will take participants through the stages of defining and exploring scope, conducting the literature searches, quality assessing studies for inclusion, synthesising data and writing up and presenting the product of the synthesis. Participants will be provided with practical experience of key stages in the review process.
No formal experience is required, working knowledge of standard systematic review methods or a background in qualitative research methods will be an advantage but not essential.
The course will consist of a mixture of presentations, group work, discussions and individual exercises.
All course materials will be provided on USB (including presentations).
Participants are asked to provide their own laptop for the duration of the course, please contact us if you are unable to do so.
