1. Let’s collect some data!
Intermediate Injury Prevention (Level II) The Role of Data in Injury Prevention August 23-26, 2011
Billings, MT
Total Session Time: minutes.
Participant Data Collection Exercise:
Put this slide up on the screen at the start of Day One, so participants see it as they enter the training room.
While they are filtering in, participants should complete and turn in the Data Collection Form to instructors
Data from these forms will be used for the INTRODUCTION TO DATA session.
After participants turn in their forms one instructor will be responsible for inserting in the PPT template: “Student Profile Template”.
This will serve two purposes: provide additional opportunity to introduce course participants to each other and get them thinking about how data is collected and used.
Note to Instructors:
Identify yourself, your job title and employer.
Although your audience will have attended the Intro course, they are still learning about the Injury Prevention Program. Their interest was piqued at the first course, that is why they are here.
Welcome them back and acknowledge that they are making a commitment to injury prevention.
Identify locations attendees traveled from to attend, thanking them for taking the time to make the trip.
Acknowledge the course is taught with a team approach. Briefly introduce other instructors, and advise class that instructors contact information is located in the binder, and that ALL instructors are open to being contacted for technical assistance after the course.
