CSTE LEAD
Happy Friday all! I wanted to share another CSTE opportunity with you!
“Applications are currently open for the third cohort of our leadership training program for mid-career epidemiologists: CSTE LEAD: Leading Epidemiologists, Advancing Data. Preview the application before submitting the application by October 21, 2022.
CSTE LEAD presents an opportunity for mid-career epidemiologists to participate in a structured 12-month competency-based on-the-job leadership training program. The online training
will include topics focusing on leadership development, motivating a team, leading an organization, and navigating politics and systems change. Each participant will lead a project that allows them to directly apply the training content. Participants are also eligible for complimentary CSTE membership for the duration of the program. Participant projects must aim to improve the practice of applied epidemiology and can occur at a health department or as
part of CSTE activities (e.g. subcommittee or workgroup projects). Participants will receive project support and guidance from their onsite supervisor, project sponsor, and a mentor.
