Academic Peer Detailing-The Preparation and Experience of Detailers Involved in a Project to Disseminate a Comparative Effectiveness Module.

Introduction: Academic detailing uses communication skills, relationship building, and feedback to facilitate behavior change. This report, part of a larger initiative to disseminate evidence summaries of systematic reviews, demonstrates the feasibility of disseminating a comparative effectiveness module to physicians using peer detailers and examines the development of faculty for this process. We describe planning and implementation of a train-the-detailer session, detailer reactions to the process, and results of the dissemination project.

Recruiting the future public health workforce: an analysis of prospect communication among accredited Schools of Public Health.

Schools of Public Health cannot sustain the national momentum for public health justice and human rights without recruiting and training a skilled public health workforce. With growing demand for public health workers, schools must work to increase their applicant pools. This project examined prospect communication materials from accredited Schools of Public Health and found that the vast majority of schools did not capitalize on opportunities to move prospects to applicants.
