The IMPACT Collaboratory's mission is to build the nation’s capacity to conduct embedded pragmatic clinical trials (ePCTs) in Alzheimer’s Disease and Alzheimer’s Disease-Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). Training a workforce of investigators prepared to conduct ePCTs of non-pharmacological interventions embedded in healthcare systems is critical to this mission. The IMPACT Collaboratory holds an annual Training Workshop for program participants to develop competence in designing and conducting ePCTs of interventions to improve care for people living with dementia and their care partners.

This virtual 1.5-day workshop will provide a foundation in practical aspects of designing and conducting ePCTs in AD/ADRD through a combination of panel discussions, small group sessions, and networking opportunities with experts in the field. Participants gain knowledge in ePCT design and method, problem-solve challenges faced in current and planned projects, and have opportunities to network and engage with the larger community of IMPACT investigators.
