Study Guide 2
The EDAC Study Guides are produced by The Center for Health Design. Study Guide 2 – Building the Evidence Base: Understanding Research in Healthcare Design – is an in-depth look at the research process as it applies to the design of the built environment, as well as how to conduct a post occupancy evaluation or design research once the project is completed. The guide covers the value of using credible evidence in projects and how design solutions can be empirically evaluated and evidence is generated.
The Study Guides are produced by The Center for Health Design and should be used to help you prepare for the EDAC exam and can serve as reference material when you begin to apply the evidence-based design process into your projects. Subscribe to all three electronic copies of the study guides for a bundled discount. For continued access, your subscription will have to be renewed every three years (access to new editions are included).
