Phase III 
Transfer and application of knowledge (research results)

For the third phase of the cycle, the aim of the follow-up committee is to promote the research by furthering the transfer, appropriation and use of the results by the workplaces likely to benefit from them. This means defining the best dissemination strategy, adapting the results to the target audiences, and seeing that the stakeholders appropriate the results and transfer them within their network. In addition, the committee identifies mechanisms for following up on the translation and on the simple means of data collection in order to evaluate the extent to which the results are used.

For this third phase, the committee’s mandate includes one or more of the following objectives:

• collaborating in defining the best knowledge translation strategy;
• participating in the adaptation of the research results to workplace realities through the production of practical guides, technical fact sheets, databases, training courses, posters, popularized articles, Web sites, video documents, etc.;
• contributing to the choice of means of dissemination and to the development of the knowledge translation plan;
• committing as stakeholders to the translation of the results to the workplaces;
• identifying the other potential intermediaries
