Welcome to Session 4. We will be looking at the second and third public policy arenas: occupational definitions and standards for research and evaluation of CHW programs and services.
Any conversation about recognizing the CHW as a regular occupation is likely to turn eventually to setting occupational standards. We begin this session by looking at key issues within this policy arena:
What influences are behind the drive for credentialing?
What influences oppose credentialing?
Where is credentialing in place? Where is it being considered?
What are the mechanics of credentialing for CHWs?
What are some features of systems currently in place?
What is the impact of credentialing?
