Measuring What Matters: Data Collection and Testing to
Demonstrate ROI (Recorded Webinar)
Presented by LaNiesha Littleton
This course is a recording of a previously hosted live webinar event. Polling and question submission features are not available for this recording. Format and structure may differ from those of standard Medbridge courses.
Accurate data collection and analysis are essential for effective ergonomics and injury-prevention programs, yet many organizations lack structured methods to capture meaningful metrics that demonstrate clinical and financial outcomes. This webinar provides a concise framework to identify, measure, and communicate program value using evidence-based data. Participants will learn how to pinpoint relevant data sources, apply validated musculoskeletal and job demand assessment tools, and translate findings into key performance indicators (KPIs) that support leadership decision-making. Designed for occupational therapists, physical therapists, and athletic trainers in industrial, healthcare, and corporate environments, this course bridges clinical expertise with organizational strategy. Attendees will gain practical tools to document outcomes defensibly, communicate return on investment (ROI) with clarity, and build leadership support for sustainable, data-driven injury-prevention initiatives.
Learning Objectives
- Select evidence-based ergonomic and early symptom assessment tools appropriate for industrial or workplace settings
- Administer standardized functional movement and job demand screening protocols using consistent procedures
- Analyze recorded findings to categorize risk level and symptom progression based on objective measures
- Determine key performance indicators (KPIs) that demonstrate functional improvement and cost-related outcomes
- Prepare a concise return-on-investment (ROI) summary to communicate ergonomic outcomes to organizational leadership
