Welcome to Karanam

Training forms a core component of our approach to research; thus
we have included this in the centre of the expertise diagram.

We will able to provide training various types of individuals: clinicians, researchers, programme officers, programme managers, counselors, out
reach staff, interviewers, to name some of them.

Our training will be customised according to your requirements. We
could provide basic/advanced level training in research methodology.
The usual training module is about two days.

A typical training module will look like:

	Introduction to Research Design
	Research Question
	Sample Size and Sampling Strategies
	Types of Study Designs
	Data Collection and Management
	Data Analysis
	Ethical Issues

In addition, we can have detailed or advanced level training on specific issues:

	Case Control Studies,
	Cohort Studies,
	Methods in Statistical Analysis,
	Protocol writing and Development,
	Manuscript Writing,
	Qualitative Health Research – to name a few.
	Training on Clinical Research

Each ‘training module’ will be hands on – there will be real life examples, real life problems, and computer analytical methods.

We are also competent to train your interviewers and data analysis personnel.

Finally, you will always have a back up in us, if there is a problem that cannot be addressed comfortably.
