ABOUT HAWAI‘I PUBLIC HEALTH TRAINING HUI
The Hawai‘i Public Health Training Hui (Hui) is a collaborative that offers ongoing continuing education to healthcare professionals and community members working to promote population health, social welfare, and well-being in Hawai‘i. The Hui was established in 2006 and passed bylaws in 2008 to provide statewide workforce training, coordination, and collaboration to meet identified common public health workforce continuing education, training, and technical assistance needs.
The Hui’s mission is to work collaboratively to empower Hawaii’s public health workforce with improved leadership, management, and decision-making skills, and to stimulate creativity and innovation among local public health personnel and community members who can improve the quality of the delivery of public health services.
The Hui is led by a steering committee made up of a dedicated group of 19 individuals from eight different organizations including the Hawai‘i Public Health Institute, Hawai‘i State Department of Health, Hawai‘i Primary Care Association, Hawai‘i Health and Harm Reduction Center, Papa Ola Lōkahi, Mental Health America of Hawai‘i, and the University of Hawai‘i.
Hui Trainings are offered via webinar throughout the year with topics based on needs assessments conducted periodically by the Hui steering committee. More than 120 different organizations have participated in the trainings and more than 2,800 members are connected on the listserv. The Hui is a proud member of the Western Region Public Health Training Center.
