Priority Learning
Priority learning is formed each year through the Leadership Coordination office of the National Support Centre. The 2 hours of learning may consist of 1 in-house course, or engaging with a specific topic through the choice of multiple approved training providers. All learning will be provided in both in-person and online formats.

“Leading from a Healthy Place: Cultivating Sustainable Leadership through Self-Care”
Self-care is important for leaders because it sustains their spiritual, emotional, and physical health, enabling them to lead others with wisdom, compassion, and endurance.
This 2 hour course is comprised of three components:
1. Part One: understanding self-care and why it is important
2. Part Two: completing a self-care assessment. This includes looking at stress and burnout indicators
3. Part Three: developing a self-care maintenance plan

We recommend discussing your results with your supervisor. They will be a good sounding board as well as a self-care maintenance accountability partner.
