The National Collaborating Centre for Methods and Tools (NCCMT) is a Canadian entity that can “help you to find and use innovative, high quality, up-to-date methods and tools for sharing what works in public health.” Their focus is broad enough such that public health professionals in the U.S. will find much of value on their web site, including:
– The Registry of Methods and Tools: a searchable, online collection of evidence-informed methods and tools for knowledge translation in public health.
– Public Health +: a source of synthesized and methodologically strong research evidence.
– Learning Modules: free online tutorials on evidence-informed decision making and critical appraisal of intervention studies.
and more.
