Staff from the University of Canberra’s Health Research Institute and Research Services are offering a free full-day professional development workshop for UC staff to build their understanding of research impact analysis and explore practical tools, such as the Global Impact Analytics Framework, that can support robust impact claims and impact narratives.
Impact analysis helps researchers understand the connections between research activities, outcomes and impacts, and how change occurs within complex real-world contexts. Developing these skills is increasingly important for research planning, evaluation, stakeholder engagement and demonstrating research value.
The full-day workshop will encompass presentations, discussions and practical examples covering the meaning of ‘impact’, an ecosystem approach for a pathway to impact, meaningfully describing research impact, and tools to measure it.
Participants will gain practical skills in understanding, planning, evidencing and analysing research impact, supported by real-world examples, assessment approaches and impact analysis tools.

It is suitable for researchers at all career stages, as well as HDR candidates and professional staff supporting research impact.
