SDO: Call MF261: SDO Management Fellowships - Evaluation Details (Hits : 668)
| Aims: | The intention of this call is to commission an external evaluation of the SDO Management Fellowships initiative. This evaluation should reflect the dynamics and processes and generate rich formative evidence that can be used for learning as the Fellowships grow and develop. This call also aims to improve patient outcomes by adding to the evidence base on the impact of closer engagement between academic researchers and healthcare managers. |
|---|---|
| Description: | The SDO programme has set up a scheme whereby project teams that are successful in bidding for large-scale empirical research projects may have the opportunity to apply for an SDO Management Fellowship to form an integral part of their research plans. An SDO Management Fellowship provides some additional resources, beyond those specified in the original proposal. This enables a practising manager from a healthcare organisation that is involved or engaged in the research project to become directly involved in the project, for example, by assisting with the research and acting as a ‘knowledge broker’ between the research team and the local NHS. The scheme began in 2009 and there are currently six fellows. It is anticipated that up to six more fellows will be appointed in the second half of 2009. |

| Funding: | The SDO programme have provisionally allocated £100,000 to this call and anticipate funding one project, ideally to be completed within six to nine months. |
