Two New Courses Receive SGS Approval
The following two courses have recently received approval by the School of Graduate Studies.
HAD 5309H - Non-Experimental Design for the Clinical Researcher
Instructor: G. Hawker
This course is designed to instruct health care providers who already have
some background in general epidemiologic principles and methods in the
design, conduct and analysis of cross-sectional, cohort and case-control
studies.
HAD 5310H - Pragmatic Issues in RCT's Course
Instructors: M. Hannah, S. Ross
To prepare students for the hurdles that are frequently encountered in RCTs.
Using the philosophy of 'if it can go wrong, it will go wrong', the goal
will be to anticipate and thus prevent problems during the conduct of RCTs,
and to learn to cope with unanticipated problems without jeopardizing the
success of the study. The principal focus of the course will be on
multicentre RCTs and the discussion will be centered on practical problems
and practical solutions, using real examples.
