The Maine Department of Labor is a partner in a collaborative effort with the Department of Health Human Services, Education, Maine Community College System, and the University of Maine System to coordinate access to and support for healthcare training via a consolidated website and training funds—Healthcare Training For ME.

They have recently received a tremendous number of requests for LPN training from both employees and employers.
Last month, they brought together the education stakeholders to learn more about barriers to scaling LPN training programs. The group created an impressive list of both challenges (space, staff capacity, etc.) and solutions (hybrid training models, weekend lab capacity, faculty sharing, etc.).

We would like to invite industry stakeholders to join this group to explore these opportunities to build the capacity of training programs together. They are scheduled to meet via Zoom on November 9^th from 10:30 to noon. If you are interested/available please register here.
