Program Description:

This Master Class workshop will educate attendees on the importance of  early incorporation of thoughtful recruitment and retention strategies into your research plan. Talks will discuss best practice for recruiting in clinical and community settings, how to address common barriers to participation and how to address volunteer retention challenges.

During this 3-hour workshop, which takes place over 2 days, faculty, staff, and community members will share reflections on past research endeavors, lessons learned, and practical advice on how you can apply this advice to your work.
While this program is designed for research personnel (coordinators, specialists, etc.), the information may be beneficial to anyone interested in recruitment and retention of study participants.
