Welcome to the Public Health Workforce Knowledge Exchange. On these pages, we plan to provide a forum for PHAC and others to share plans, policies and experience with Public Health Human Resources (PHHR) strategies and planning and other resources of interest to those addressing public health workforce needs. We invite other organizations to contribute to the content of this site.

We work with partners and stakeholders to mobilize Pan-Canadian action to improve Canada's public health workforce. This is a collaborative effort and includes public health human resource planning; training, recruitment and retention strategies; the development of competency profiles; and practice-based educational, training and professional development opportunities and incentives.

Of particular interest, to those considering a career in public health are the listings of training and career opportunities.
