Mastering the 12 MCH Leadership Competencies
HOW DOES 5-MINUTE WORK?
Welcome to the MCH Navigator's 5-Minute MCH! As busy Title V professionals,
we recognize the value of time and the importance of receiving quality,
tailored information and resources quickly. With that in mind, we have
designed a new program to improve your knowledge and skills of the 12 MCH
Leadership Competencies.
We will master one of the 12 MCH Leadership Competencies each
month from July 2015 - June 2016 with an easy-to-follow weekly
format designed to increase your knowledge and
skills through 5-minute intensive learning sessions
emailed to you each week and available through
the MCH Navigator's 5-Minute Portal.
Beginning in July 2015, the MCH Navigator will conduct a monthly series that
explores each competency, provides learning opportunities and
implementation strategies, and culminates in an interactive learning session
with an expert from the field.
5-MINUTE HIGHLIGHTS
Make Learning Fun, Quick, and Easy. Review competencies in a fast, but
structured 5-minute model that takes little time to complete, motivates your
sense of learning, and provides critical training for your role as an MCH
professional.
Increase Knowledge and Skills. Combining the online self-assessment tool
with 5-Minute MCH allows you to focus your learning in areas that you need
to strengthen. You will receive real-life strategies to implement learning in
your daily work.
Learn as Part of a Group. As part of the MCH Navigator’s Learning
Collaborative, you can interact with other professionals in the program. This
gives you the opportunity to share insights and ask questions to a group of
fellow learners.
Become an Expert. SHORT-TERM: Measure your pre- and post- understanding
of each competency through the program. LONG-TERM: Use the online
self-assessment to create a personalized learning plan for professional
development across your career.
Be Recognized for Your Learning. Use 5-Minute MCH and online
self-assessment as part of your professional development activities, either
individually or as a team-building activity with your co-workers or office.

In week 1 of each month, you will learn about a new
competency through a 5-minute video podcast. You will learn
what knowledge and skill sets each competency contains and
how they are important for your daily work. You will also be
linked to the MCH Navigator's online self-assessment to further
identify your learning needs.
In week 2 of each month, you will receive 5 highly focused
learning opportunities for that month's competency. You may
take one or all of the trainings to sharpen your knowledge and
skills. You can share your learning experiences online with others
who have taken the same trainings.
In week 3 of each month, you will receive 5 implementation
strategies to put knowledge to practice. You can share your
experiences implementing the strategies in your workplace on
the 5-Minute Portal.
In week 4 of each month, you will hear a 5 minute presentation
from an expert in the field. You will have the opportunity to ask
questions and dialogue with other health professionals in a
10-minute follow-up to the speaker. Now you are an expert!
At the close of the webinar you will receive a certificate of completion for
your focused work throughout the month. See if you can complete all 12
