Following our recent announcement about the Evidence Synthesis Skills Framework, we are pleased to introduce a new, free course developed alongside the framework by evidence synthesis experts of the Juno Evidence Alliance and the CABI Academy team.

Primer on Evidence Synthesis is a self-led, online course providing a strong introduction to key terminology and important principles. It is aimed at those who are new to evidence synthesis or need a rapid initiation into the subject.

Primer on Evidence Synthesis is designed to help people and organizations develop understanding and embed a common language around evidence synthesis, and helps to answer questions such as:

  • What is evidence synthesis and why is it important?
  • What different types of evidence syntheses are there?
  • What are reporting standards, and why are they important?
  • What makes a good evidence synthesis?

Using agrifoods as a context, the content can be applied across multiple disciplines.
