FREE Partners in Research course - online - register for Spring & Fall 2018

[A Former User]

Congrats!! This is great.

The fall is the third time I have register for this course and because they run during days I have not been able to take it last fall and the spring one.

Maybe Annette with you and Alies involved you can suggest to have modules saved and ran some in evenings (hopefully wednesday )

Often I find organizers think all patient advisors are unable to work. I consider myself lucky, after a 3 year hiatus from work and weekly medical appointments finally I was able to return to work and successfully work with a chronic illness.

Any support is appreciated, would like to be able to take course.

Great news that you are back at work, Virginia!

Your point is very important. I think everywhere patients are engaged, this is a struggle. I mean we can't even see our doctors on weekends and after hours easily.

We will keep raising it. Cheers! Alies

Kati, I hope you are an early bird! We definitely need to push for more flexibility and will. Alies

Hi Alies, I am definitely not an early bird, but i managed to get back to sleep after the class.

Virginia, a lot of,people that take the Partners in Research class work, there are not only patients, there are also researchers joining in- mind you they may be able to work it out in their schedule since this is work related activities. The challenges is to reach out everyone across Canada with different time zones and different personal schedules.

I applied mid-December 2017 for the October 2018 course and it was already full...

They said they would put me on a waiting list and let me know about the next course, but so far I haven't heard a peep

It is wildly popular. I'll talk to them and ask about another round or two. Alies

Hi Claudia

Partners in Research is a course funded by research dollars from the Ontario SPOR Support Unit. It was offered by St Michael's Hospital Li Ka Shing Institute

I have heard that it will be offered again across the country but I have no facts.
