OBJECTIVES/GOALS: This study evaluates the impact of an updated and expanded training for social and behavioral health researchers. Participants’ experience with training modules focused on community engagement is a focus of this evaluation as is the application of this training by participants in teams. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The Social and Behavioral Research training series for health researchers and team members was first created by faculty and staff of the Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research in 2018. This training was updated and expanded in 2021 with support from the National Institutes of Health to include new material regarding community-engaged health research as well as updates concerning technology and new federal regulations. Past participants of the training were invited to retake the training, as were clinical and translational researchers at University of Michigan who were new to the training. Surveys were sent to all participants after completing the training and a focus group of research staff was conducted to identify how they utilized the training in support of their teams. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: It is anticipated that at least 100 individuals will participate in the evaluation of the Social and Behavioral Research training between October 2022 and February 2023. Data extracted from U-M’s learning management platform will demonstrate how well participants performed on key knowledge checks embedded in the modules and how quickly they progressed through the sections of the training. These results will be compared to benchmarks derived from evaluations of the prior course which were conducted in 2018. A focus group of at least 10 individuals will demonstrate how health research staff utilized the training and associated resources to advance the scientific work of their study teams. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Comprehensive training programs for research best practices in social and behavioral health need to have tailored and up-to-date information for this group of researchers and staff. The results of this evaluation will demonstrate how this program contributed to the professional development of the health research workforce.
