Achieving Behaviour Change (ABC): An Introductory Masterclass – February 2025

In A Nutshell:

Discover how behaviour change methods can be applied to quality improvement challenges.

Many things we do in healthcare to improve safety, such as the introduction of new guidelines, require staff to change their behaviour. We often assume this is easy – tell people what to do and they will do it. But, behaviour change can be difficult to achieve.

This Masterclass provides an introduction to our evidence-based Achieving Behaviour Change (ABC) approach, helping you to:

Understand how behaviour change theory can enhance quality improvement efforts
Understand how to identify and address barriers to behaviour change
See how this approach can be applied in
practice with our case studies
