Upcoming Webinar – Strengthening Public Health Capacity Through Competency Frameworks

Public health systems in Canada are evolving rapidly amid growing challenges and organizational transformations. Common competency frameworks serve as a key lever to build capacity, support training, and better align practice.

Hosted by the NCCHPP, on behalf of the National Collaborating Centres for Public Health, this webinar will include a presentation by the NCCDH on the Core Competencies for Public Health 2.0, developed through a broad national engagement led by the NCCPH.

It will also present two complementary frameworks: public health communication competencies, developed with Jennifer McWhirter (Health by Design Lab) to strengthen responses to misinformation; and organizational leadership competencies for public health system governance, developed with Erica Di Ruggiero (Centre for Global Health).

Through short presentations and a panel discussion, participants will reflect on practical ways to use these frameworks in teaching and practice.
