Funding
Post-graduate studies, ongoing learning, research studies and program evaluation and knowledge translation activities generally require additional costs that are not included in an organization’s day to day operating expenses. Funding for education, research and knowledge translation activities is available to respiratory therapists through the RTSO and from a variety of resources. There are also tutorial resources available to provide guidance in writing grants and other types of proposals.
