1. Dynamic workforce data at your fingertips
Health Workforce Information Programme (HWIP)

2. Data – the evidence base
Health workforce – capacity, capability and comparison
How many people do we have now to inform what is needed in the future?
What are the required skills needed to provide the appropriate level of expertise?
How are we managing our workforce? How do DHBs compare and how can they learn from one another’s successes
We may not have the definitive answers to these questions, but we do have a robust data collection and analytical expertise to help inform the discussion
