The All of Us Researcher Academy Train-the-Trainer Program provides evidence-based materials designed to help you train researchers in your lab, institution, or professional network to use the All of Us Researcher Workbench to advance science. In an evaluation, the training materials increased skills and confidence in using the Workbench among researchers without previous Workbench experience.
The program’s training materials are free, and the program is self-directed so you can work at your own pace. The Train-the-Trainer Program is designed for individuals who have used the Workbench and are proficient in R or Python. These materials include the following:
- A series of video-recorded training workshop modules to complete at your own pace
- A detailed training manual and PowerPoint deck to use for teaching others how to use the Workbench
- A syllabus of training topics, techniques, resources, and milestones to guide you through honing your training skills
- Templates for preparing a training implementation plan and for email communications between trainers and trainees
- Resources for trainees, including the Researchers’ Guide to Using the Workbench, User Tips for Avoiding Common Workbook Challenges, and an analysis plan template
- Strategies for driving trainees to take the next steps to register for the Workbench and to conduct an analysis of All of Us data by creating workspaces
