Led by the AHSN’s Academy team alongside guest speakers, topics will include stakeholder mapping, process mapping, data management and the basics for change management.
Each workshop will be interactive, so you can apply learning in real-world scenarios. If you encounter challenges, and want to consider how these can be tackled, these sessions will help.
