After over twenty years of offering this workshop at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, it is with heavy hearts that the workshop co-directors announce that the 2024 workshop was the last iteration of this workshop in its current format.

The annual Duke Teaching and Leading Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) workshop began in 2003. Our mission was to provide health professions’ educators tools for teaching EBP, including critical appraisal and the essential competency of identifying risk of bias in studies that should alert us to information that should not be clinically applied. Our interactive, small group learning environment and educator focus was successful year after year in preparing educators to bring this curriculum home.

Our workshop objectives included:

• Training leaders in the health professions to facilitate evidence-based clinical practice in their teaching and practice settings.
• Practicing the skills involved in evidence-based practice including clinical question formation and acquisition of biomedical evidence from the literature.
• Reviewing and develop critical appraisal skills and application of available evidence to patient care and health professions education.
• Providing interactive experience with a variety of evidence-based resources guided by librarians and clinicians with expertise in evidence-based practice.

We hope you continue to find ways to integrate the important principles of evidence-based clinical practice into your education and health care delivery. We sincerely thank you for your many years of support.
