SUMMARY:🏆 Blueprint for Evidence: Protocol Writing for Systematic & Scoping Reviews
DESCRIPTION:Want to start a systematic or scoping review but not sure how 
 to begin? This 60-minute session will help you build a strong foundation by 
 focusing on the most important first step: your protocol. Protocols are 
 essential for ensuring transparency\, consistency\, and credibility in 
 evidence synthesis projects—and they're increasingly required by journals 
 and registries like PROSPERO. In this workshop\, we’ll walk through the 
 key components of a protocol\, highlight freely available templates and 
 tools (such as PRISMA-P)\, and discuss when\, why\, and how to register 
 your protocol with platforms like PROSPERO and OSF. Whether you’re 
 working independently or with a team\, this session will help you move from 
 idea to actionable plan with clarity and confidence.\n\nBy the end of this 
 class\, participants will be able to:\n\n\n	\n	Describe the purpose and 
 value of a protocol in evidence synthesis\, including how it contributes to 
 transparency and reduces bias.\n	\n	\n	Differentiate between protocols for 
 systematic reviews and scoping reviews\, including key structural 
 similarities and differences.\n	\n	\n	Identify the key elements of a 
 protocol\, using tools such as the PRISMA-P checklist and JBI 
 guidance.\n	\n	\n	Locate\, evaluate\, and understand the requirements of 
 protocol registries\, including PROSPERO\, Open Science Framework (OSF)\, 
 and relevant journals.\n	\n\n\n \n\nThis class is ideal for anyone new to 
 evidence synthesis\, including researchers\, students\, and clinicians who 
 are looking to strengthen their ability to conduct systematic reviews or 
 other types of evidence synthesis. Whether you're beginning a review or 
 refining your skills\, this session will provide the necessary tools to 
 help you get started with evidence-based 
 research.\n\nFormat:\nLecture-style presentation with opportunities for 
 discussion and Q&A.
