Description:

 

If you get off on the wrong foot, it is hard to get a project back on track. This one-day intensive course aims to equip participants with a good understanding of the planning and preparation required when conducting a qualitative research project. Through a combination of lectures and hands-on practical sessions, it covers:  
  • the nature of qualitative research – what it can and cannot deliver
  • main methods and techniques
  • developing qualitative research questions
  • choosing an appropriate research strategy
  • drawing a qualitative sample
  • designing topic guides for use in interview or focus group based studies
  • judging the ‘quality’ of qualitative research.
Anyone considering taking a course in qualitative interviewing or focus group skills would be advised to take the design course as it provides an invaluable foundation.
