To support local public health departments with building workforce development programs and meeting the documentation requirements of accreditation, a representative from a large metropolitan health department and a representative from the Council on Linkages Between Academia and Public Health Practice will describe how existing tools and resources have been developed to support building a competency-based workforce development program. Best practices will be shared on how one accredited local health department created a workforce development program from the beginning and how competencies are used to build a competent public health workforce.
