Effective investigator meetings are those in which attendees not only learn critical information about enrollment and other protocols but can accurately share this information with their colleagues on site. One of the most effective ways to ensure they hear and understand what is being presented is to keep them engaged throughout the meeting. In fact, our data from all meetings supported by Array in 2024 point to a 19% increase in knowledge transfer when individuals are more engaged.
Array provides several engagement features – and a team of experts ready to help you decide when and how to use them to achieve your specific goals. The following are just three simple ways Array can help you increase engagement at investigator meetings:
- Slide annotation and saving: Enable participants to annotate slides right on their managed iPad® so they can make the content more meaningful for themselves and receive a copy in their inbox to refer to when training their teams. These notes are also available to study leads to help them understand how content was received and where there are opportunities for follow-up.
- Gamification: Take advantage of healthcare providers’ competitive nature with games that test their knowledge while reinforcing important facts.
- Q&A: Give everyone the opportunity to ask questions anonymously and you’ll reach the introverts who are deterred by speaking into a mic. Answer questions promptly throughout the meeting and you’ll receive even more!
Engagement features such as these provide critical opportunities for attendees to personalize content in a way that helps them learn and retain it, ask questions to deepen their understanding, and send information to their inboxes to refer to later for accurate recall.
