COVID-19 (Coronavirus) and QRSI
To assist your planning over the coming months, we can let you know that QRSI WILL PROCEED and will not be canceled.
If public health and government officials agree that it is absolutely safe for us to be in-person, QRSI courses will be offered in a hybrid format where each participant has the option to attend in-person or online.
We will continue to monitor the situation via federal and local public health organizations and officials at the University of North Carolina.
- If any of these officials suggests or mandates that we not hold the event in person (i.e., if officials advise no public gatherings in July), we will convert QRSI to an exclusively online event over the scheduled dates.
Join us for five days of qualitative research professional development courses and networking opportunities.
Take advantage of a unique opportunity to gain both theoretical and practical understanding of qualitative inquiry.
Continuing our tradition of integrating foundation courses with new topical courses, ResearchTalk and the Odum Institute are proud to feature:
- 7 new courses
-
We are proud to welcome 2 new qualitative scholars to our team:
- Sharron Docherty
- Matt Omasta
