The explosion of freely available information through the internet has provided researchers with access to a wider range of sources than ever before. However, such access has also created difficulties for researchers as regards conducting research efficiently and effectively by using only reliable sources. This workshop provides participants with the skills to identify legal issues, source authority, and to creatively use this research to propose creative solutions for the client. Specifically, the purpose of this training is to:
- Inculcate a disciplined research ethos within the organisation
- Highlight the benefits of acquiring such discipline
- Implement a ‘step-by-step’ best practice approach towards good research
- Create ‘institutional memory’ regarding good research practice through the creation and maintenance of contemporaneous records
