Implementing EBTs can be a daunting challenge given the need to consider contextual factors and resource availability. Effective strategies that are well supported logically (and empirically where data is available) are central. This workshop will introduce attendees to the Implementation Research Logic Model (IRLM)-a practical tool for planning and executing implementation and practice change efforts that is generalizable across EBTs and setting types. The presenter, who is the lead developer of the IRLM, will share an updated User Guide and worksheets to aid participants in using this useful tool in their organizations.
Learning Objectives:
Explain the core elements and generalizable theory underlying the IRLM.
Begin to use the IRLM to select strategies and plan for an implementation/change effort.
Gain familiarity with the IRLM's supporting materials (e.g., User Guide, worksheets, web interface).
