The Capacity Project and IntraHealth International have published Learning for Performance: A Guide and Toolkit for Health Worker Training and Education Programs.

This resource connects learning to specific job responsibilities and competencies and shortens the time required for training by focusing learning on what is most essential for the job.

Performance-based learning can play an important role in key strategies to strengthen human resources for health, including task shifting, developing new cadres and aligning training with national health goals.
