This past year has seen qualitative research move entirely to a virtual environment. Andrew and Isaac will talk about their experiences in leading their organizations into the virtual world of data collection and they will talk about their visions for how qualitative research will look post-Covid. At GAO, Andrew has led a best in practice movement that includes virtual site visits and virtual small group methods. At 2020/Schlesinger, Isaac has overseen thousands of virtual groups and worked with clients to solve critical challenges when migrating their work to digital platforms. Coming out of Covid, many of these virtual methodologies will remain and the post-Covid landscape will be forever changed for qualitative researchers.
