Using the Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals to Support Workforce Development

Join the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS), the City of Milwaukee Health Department (MHD), and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) for a webinar on May 13, 2024, from 12-1 pm ET. Presenters will discuss how they used the Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals (Core Competencies) to assess their workforce; identify gaps in knowledge, skills, and abilities; and address those gaps through training and other workforce development opportunities. Speakers from DHSS will share how they used the Core Competencies as a foundational part of their workforce development activities as a component of their Public Health Infrastructure Grant initiative and to support Public Health Accreditation Board accreditation. Speakers will also share their process to meaningfully integrate anti-racist frameworks and the Core Competencies to build organizational structure and staff development.
