The MCH Workforce Development team supports individuals and teams through various learning opportunities. These learning opportunities focus on access to new knowledge, skills, attitudes, and abilities. Our strategies include training, consultation, coaching, and communities of practice.
Training
We share our content expertise. The learning opportunity is focused on shared language, knowledge gain and skill development.
Consultation
Together we share expertise in content and context. We support the implementation of this shared language, new knowledge, and skills within any specific context. We do this through visioning, brainstorming, and problem-solving.
Coaching
You are the expert. Through facilitated conversation, we support you in being aware of, and addressing, attitudes and mindsets - those that both help and hinder the adoption and/or implementation of new knowledge and skills.
Communities of Practice
Collectively you are the expert. Related to specific areas of focus, we create spaces for you to be with your colleagues to learn from and grow with, one another as you deepen your abilities to integrate and operationalize change within your team, community, and organization.
