Are you currently involved with a research project or on a research team?

This course incorporates opportunities to practice and apply KxM tools and resources to your research. Your learning experience will be enhanced if you are able to use the course activities to advance the KxM strategies that will be relevant for your research area.  If you do not have your own relevant research example, a case study will be provided to you.  

Are you willing to work through a relevant research example or case study over the course of the eight-week program?
This may include prior training, courses or workshops in KxM, or experience conducting KxM activities on a research team.
