Pre-Innovation Training
Toolkit Home | Phase 1 | Phase 2 | Phase 3 | Phase 4 | Phase 1 Action Steps
To support the team working on the implementation project, a training program to cover implementation, data collection, project management, and intervention specific skills needs to be developed.
​
For this step, the implementation team needs to:
-
determine how to provide sufficient training to teach the why, what, when, where, and how of the intended innovation,
-
ensure that the training covers the competencies needed for practitioners to achieve self-efficacy, proficiency, and correct implementation of the innovation.
Tools to use during the Pre-Innovation Training phase:
Data Literacy Training
Improvement projects should be based on evidence, which means that all members of the improvement team must understand what data they need to collect, where and how to collect that data, and how to interpret the data they have found. This training serves as an introduction to the ongoing conversation between an improvement team and a data management support team. ​
Who should use the Data Literacy Training?
This data training focuses on Enterprise Data and is useful for teams whose interventions involve collecting and monitoring EHR data.
​
How does the tool help with Implementation?
The training covers data ecosystems, how data is created, how data is utilized, and how to compose a data request. ​It provides context for teams working with the Enterprise Data Guide and the Data Discovery Questionnaire that teams will work through during Phase 2as they create an implementation plan.
​
Resources recommended:
Time: The training is designed to be 50 minutes and can be watched as a live training or recorded. Time light resource.
​
People: In teams working with EHR data, most of the team members who would be interacting with data either in its collection, management, or analysis should take this training. Personnel medium resource.
​
Funding: Personnel time is the only funding resource needed. Funding light resource.

Basic QIF Training
In this training, participants will first receive a high-level overview of what implementation is, why we care about it within a clinical setting, and what the key factors are for achieving successful program or clinical outcomes – including successful implementation.
The training will briefly describe implementation science as a field and introduce a systematic way to approach implementation activities – the Model for Implementation – which is covered in greater detail within this toolkit.

Training materials will review the toolkit as a whole, including a description of the Quality Implementation Framework – which was used to guide toolkit organization – and offer insights into how to use the toolkit. Finally, this training includes information about the roles and responsibilities of various individuals who support implementation efforts.
Who should use the Implementation Science Training?
Any team that is working on an implementation project should have an introduction to the basic tenants of Implementation Science presented in this training. Specifically, if team members are new to implementation science, they should go through the training. If team members have already worked on implementation science projects, they can take a more advanced version of this training.
​
How does the tool help with Implementation?
This training provides an overview and introduction intended to guide the use of the HSII toolkit. As such, this training should be completed at the beginning of an implementation effort, prior to using any individual tools or resources.
​
Resources recommended:
Time: The training itself is designed to be between an hour and an hour and a half. Time light resource.
​
People: Most people working on an implementation project will need to undergo this training at the beginning of the implementation process. Personnel medium resource.
​
Funding: The only cost for the tool itself is the personnel time to attend the training. Funding light resource.

Leadership Training
This power point presentation describes two leadership models that support successful implementation processes in organizations. The first is “full range leadership model” that is a general leadership theory that examines the behaviors of leaders in different work situations and the decisions they make. It distinguishes between “laissez-faire”, “transactional” and “transformational” leadership models.
The second theory is the theory of adaptive leadership, which describes a range of behaviors that leaders display to drive complex change in their organizations. This presentation is intended to be used as a stimulus for discussion after an implementation leadership assessment has been completed. ​
Who should use Leadership Training?
Most teams would benefit from some sort of leadership training. The strength of this training is for teams that are in need of multiple layers of leadership and leaders that need to organize complicated implementation structures.
​
How does the tool help with Implementation?
Building capacity of the organization and the workforce is a key activity in QIF Phase 2. One critical component is leadership capacity. Understanding the attitudes of leaders in an organization and their leadership styles allows an implementation support team to both assess the potential barriers to implementation and to plan strategies to build capacities in advance of the implementation itself. This presentation, along with the implementation leadership and implementation climate assessments will provide the necessary information for strengthening the leadership support for implementation.
​
Resources recommended:
Time: The training itself is designed to take between an hour and an hour and a half. To fully implement the lesson learned will require time outside of the training. Time light resource.
​
People: While useful for project leadership, the training is broad enough to be helpful to anyone in the team leading even small pieces of the implementation process. Personnel medium resource.
​
Funding: The cost is the personnel time. Funding light resource.
