Hi, heroes. I need to access evidence- or research-based content that is written by people experienced in the field of child welfare, who hold a Masters.
How do you handle it when you develop training as an independent contractor/company, but you are not an expert on the subject? Most courses I developed were done in a large corporation with SME's readily available.
Do you contact random experts and offer to pay for their expertise? What would the rate of pay be for such a venture, if any? Would an expert be satisfied if they were credited for providing knowledge for a worthy cause? I plan to use materials from US and state government sites. What else can you suggest?
Jill: I'm not sure I quite understand your situation. You are contracting with a company that wants to develop a piece of training, but there are no experts at that company to help with content? Do they want to sell the training or something? A little bit more context might help.
Do you have a pretty big university or college near-by? Sounds like you are going to need access to child-welfare related databases, the ones larger universities subscribe to.
Hi, Daniel. I am bidding on a government project, and they require that I provide or write the content. So, I need to find experts who can help me. Thanks for the tip on universities.
I assume experts will want to be paid for their efforts. Hard to say exactly how much, and that's a big unknown for you to cover. Again, I'd start with your local college or university and see how they can help.

Thanks for the clarification.

Thanks for your help, Daniel. I will also contact folks in the psych industry who may have written papers, done research.
