NACCHO is seeking a qualified consultant to develop a new training curriculum that NACCHO will use to provide new local health officials (LHOs) (defined as having served less than two years in their position) with the knowledge, skills, abilities, tools, and networks to successfully lead progressive and innovative health departments. The consultant will work closely with NACCHO staff, the New LHO Advisory Committee, and the consultants who led the needs assessment and are developing the evaluation strategy to develop a 12-month training curriculum that aligns with CDC and NACCHO training standards. Consultants should have experience developing cohort-based, multi-modality, blended virtual and in person, learning curricula that spans an extended time period. The consultant will also be responsible for developing a training and engagement plan for experienced local health officers that will serve as coaches for the program. The curricula should meet the needs of adult learners who are concurrently leading their health department. Familiarity with the functioning of local health departments, the unique role of local heath officers, the complex political and social landscape of public health, and the existing frameworks that guide leaders in today’s public health environment, the function of local health officials in their community and governmental structures is required.
