Abstract
The Executive Training for Research Application (EXTRA) is a fellowship program designed to train health services leaders to become better decision-makers by learning how to find, assess, and interpret research-based evidence. The target audience for the EXTRA program is mid-career nurse, physician and other health service executives currently in senior leadership and management positions. The program has five core components: 1) four away-from-home residency sessions; 2) one or several “intervention” projects at the home organization, proposed when the fellow applies to the program; 3) educational activities between residency sessions; 4) network-building opportunities between faculty and other fellows throughout the program; and 5) support and activities after the program wraps up. This is what some of our College members have to say about the program.
