The Society For Public Health Education Knowledge Center

I’ve had the good fortune to work hand in hand with the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE) for the last two years to develop a new tool called the SOPHE Knowledge Center.  Here’s what SOPHE said about the SOPHE Knowledge Center (SKC) on their site:

The "SOPHE Knowledge Center" (SKC) will provide a consistent, efficient way for health education professionals to access materials relevant to their field and provide evidence-based support for positive changes in health, health policy, research, and/or practice. SKC is an interactive system that will catalogue ongoing research, archive reports and other products, and capture information regarding evidence-based practice and generation of new evidence based on research results.

This system will enable users worldwide to submit customized searches and retrieve information relevant for guiding their work. Moreover, by closely tracking the use of knowledge and its application, the system can better monitor the effectiveness of health education action and identify emerging priorities for future research.

We have created several videos to explain how to use the SKC.  I’ve put the first of them here, but you can find the remainder on the site itself.  I invite you to visit the SKC and explore.

I look forward to your comments and feedback.
