Tony O'Hagan - SHELF: the Sheffield Elicitation Framework


SHELF Training, 21-24 January 2020


Course announcement

Tony O'Hagan and colleagues will be running four days of tuition on Expert Knowledge Elicitation with SHELF, on 21-24 January 2020.

It will be based on the very successful training we gave three times previously, most recently in April 2019, but with a few improvements.

The first two days, 21-22 January, will comprise a comprehensive short course, Elicitation with SHELF. This course will cover the principles of expert elicitation and the SHELF method, together with practical considerations in planning and running a SHELF elicitation workshop.

The key role in the SHELF method is that of the facilitator. The Advanced Facilitation course will be run twice, on 23 and 24 January. This will be an intensive, small group, hands-on session for participants who wish to be trained to act as facilitators. Each trainee will gain practical experience of facilitating a SHELF elicitation workshop, using carefully designed and realistic scenarios. Trainees will also gain experience in another important role, that of recorder. Attendance is limited to four trainees on each Advanced Facilitation day. Participants will need to have first attended the two-day Elicitation with SHELF course (on either this or a previous occasion).

The tutors

The course tutors have extensive experience of conducting SHELF elicitations and of presenting training courses. The team comprises Tony O'Hagan, Jeremy Oakley, John-Paul Gosling, Caitlin Buck and John Stevens.
