Abstract

We describe a novel curriculum designed to build capacity for public health and primary care collaboration. Since the Northwest Public Health & Primary Care Leadership Institute began in 2020, 119 participants have completed the seven-month hybrid curriculum. Application of knowledge and skills learned to workplace or community projects was reported by 84% of participants. Case-based learning and the critical friends group were valued learning methodologies. A cross-sectoral leadership curriculum can promote public health and primary care integration.
