KTA tools

Applying pragmatic and valid tools can support change teams to accurately measure the identified problem or determine the know-do gap and strengthen their understanding of these components. Using these tools can also help change teams prepare for the next action cycle phase, ‘Adapt knowledge to the local context’.

The table below lists the tools that can be used to measure the identified problem and to determine the know/do gap. For each tool, two documents are provided – 1) a summary page that includes the tool’s purpose, description and applicable action cycle phases, and 2) a companion document that details the tools’ pragmatic and psychometric properties.

*All of the above tools can also be considered for use during two other action cycle phases: 1) Barriers and facilitators to knowledge use and 2) Monitor knowledge use.
