| As the health care system strives to adapt to the personnel shortage and program reductions, it becomes imperative that public health professionals explore creative solutions that not only enhance students’ learning outcomes but also contribute to strengthening the agencies and institutions in which they learn. For instance, the public health infrastructure of the state can be strengthened through closer collaboration between public health and medicine and nursing by developing a cadre of public health-trained professionals who will be alert to recognize and respond to unusual events. This session will illustrate unique models of learning for the professional development & education of current public health workers. Moreover, there will be a discussion on how service and education work together to cultivate future public health professionals. | |||
