Many healthcare organizations offer their employees tuition assistance and education benefits. Far fewer have connected those investments to the roles they most need to fill.
Advocate Health set out to change that, moving from a standard education benefit to a more unified workforce development strategy built around organizational priorities.
In this session, workforce development and initiatives leaders from Advocate Health walk through the foundational decisions behind that shift: how they identified workforce needs, built leadership alignment, increased employee engagement and supported advancement into critical roles. They’ll share what drove Advocate to rethink its approach, how it moved from strategy to implementation and what they’ve learned along the way.
Insights include:
- How to identify workforce needs and align leaders behind a shared strategy
- Practical ways to move an education program from strategy to implementation
- How to connect education and talent development to long-term workforce needs
