Our free monthly webinar series introduces introductory and advanced policy surveillance methods and applications. We offer two webinar tracks: Introduction to Policy Surveillance and Advanced Policy Surveillance Training
Introduction to Policy Surveillance
This training provides a broad overview of policy surveillance methods and applications. Attendees will learn the differences between scientific legal mapping techniques (e.g., policy surveillance, legal assessments), the steps of the policy surveillance process, and uses for the data.
