There are some very interesting article titles in the following table of
contents for Health Promotion Practice, a bimonthly journal that comes
from the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE) in the U.S.
For example, the article on 'Transfer of Learning', there are good points
made about how much participants learn from workshops, and how
organizations evaluate (or not) effect of their training programs. It
points out:
* No more than 20% of training investment actually results in transfer to
the job.
• There is a lack of alignment of many training programs with
agency-strategic direction.
• There is disconnect between trainers, trainees, and line man-agers who
supervise trainees.....
Or - check out the article on conceptual model of health promotion
capacity-building in Alberta:
[from abstract] "Effective implementation of community health initiatives
to promote heart health can be conceptualized as the involvement of local
leadership, policy advocacy, and enhancement of existing infrastructure.
The model highlights building these dimensions of community capacity
development for health promotion."
