One of the main advantages of a workshop on research methodology is the chance for attendees to speak with subject-matter specialists and ask them questions that can help them better grasp the subject. The workshop is an experiential learning opportunity that falls somewhere between a class and a conference. Participants can practice new skills as they learn them, making it possible to make mistakes in a low-risk setting and immediately fix them. The facilitators for the above workshops were Dr. Fozia Fatima (PhD-Education) and Dr. Nadia Shabnam (PhD-Statistics). Both faculty members of the Department of Health Professions Education. NUMS are highly professional and competent instructors. They have a strong grip on the discipline of research methodology in both quantitative and qualitative domains.
At the conclusion of the workshops, Brigadier Tashfeen Bin Nazeer (Director of Training, AFPGMI) gave certificates and shields to both facilitators and expressed his gratitude for their participation and candor.
