Participants will receive: foundational concepts for practicing EBM in a clinical setting, a solid understanding of randomized controlled trials, systematic reviews, and access to reliable sources of evidence that may be utilized amid a busy clinical practice. By the end of this workshop, you will have increased confidence to apply EBM concepts to your practice including using evidence in shared decision making with patients.
