Knowledge translation and exchange (KTE) strategies show promise, but these require evaluation. This paper describes implementation and evaluation of COOPS, a national KTE platform to support best practice in obesity prevention CBIs. A logic model guides KTE activities including knowledge brokering, networking, tailored communications, training, and needs assessments. A mixed-methods evaluation includes communications data, knowledge brokering database, annual survey of CBIs, pre- and post-event questionnaires, interviews, social network analysis, and case studies. This evaluation will contribute to understanding the process of implementing a KTE platform with CBIs and its reach, quality and effectiveness.enCopyright Policy Press 2016knowledge translationevidence-informed practiceobesitycommunity-basedEvaluation of a knowledge translation and exchange platform to advance non-communicable disease preventionJournal article10.1332/204674315X142979019562762-s2.0-84958975280
