practice team will be showcasing is evidence-based practice. In readiness for this event your

analysis tools and methods. (AC 2.1)
▪ Present the findings for stakeholders from people practice activities and initiatives. (AC 2.2)
▪ Make justified recommendations based on evaluation of the benefits, risks and financial
implications of potential solutions. (AC 2.3)
