The Pacific AIDS Network provides professional development opportunities for its member organizations in two main areas: PHA Leadership and Professional Development Training for staff and key volunteers.
PHA Leadership
Beginning in September 2009, PAN has been working in partnership with the Ontario AIDS Network (OAN) to deliver leadership training to PHAs in BC, and subsequently created the Positive Leadership Development Institute (PLDI).
PAN currently offers Level I Core Training, a peer-driven and delivered professional development opportunity dedicated to assisting PHAs in realizing their individual leadership potential. While the Level I Core Training is provided in a retreat setting, the beautiful Loon Lake Camp, it is not a retreat.
Professional Development Training for staff and key volunteers
PAN provides skills-building and targeted workforce development opportunities to the staff and key volunteers of member organizations. With a large geographically dispersed province like British Columbia, and a province with unique challenges that often vary from region to region, the need to bring people together to discuss challenges and successes is critical.
PAN provides service providers with the opportunity to explore best and promising practices, ensuring that those living with HIV, co-infected with HCV, or at risk for HIV/HCV infection, receive the best care, treatment, support and prevention/educational information possible.
