Researcher Guidelines -Certification Course Reporting What the Record Supports Report What You Understand

 

 

Strong researchers understand that understanding should come before reporting.

Strong researchers recognize that reading information and understanding information are not always the same thing. When something is unclear, they clarify, verify, or seek guidance before communicating it to others.
