National Stream Leads help guide the development and direction of CANTRAIN’s training programs by contributing to overall strategy, informing training and mentoring priorities and supporting long-term planning. They review and approve course content, take part in needs assessments and evaluation planning and help ensure the training reflects the needs of the communities it serves. Stream Leads also support communication and outreach, help identify and address operational challenges, and collaborate with other Stream Leads to share insights and coordinate efforts across programs. Using their experience and professional networks, they help engage subject matter experts and promote the program to relevant audiences and prospective learners. Stream Leads may also act as subject matter experts themselves.
