This course was developed to support Local Health Departments to implement a formal succession planning process in order to identify and grow individuals through their leadership journey.

In this interactive module you will learn how succession planning can benefit your organization and be introduced to a framework that can be utilized and customized to your own needs. Stories from the field are highlighted throughout to see how LHDs have approached their own succession planning efforts.

Before you begin, download the guidebook as a resource to follow along with the content and take notes. There is also a zip file that includes several resources shared by LHDs that you may find useful.

After you've finished the module, please be sure to complete the evaluation. We appreciate your feedback.
