Core Competencies Questionnaire for Organizations and Individuals
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
CSIH is currently carrying out a survey of Canadian core competencies in 
international healthand development issues. The questionnaire regarding 
organizational competencies has been sent out earlier this summer and has 
been posted on our website (www.csih.org). A second questionnaire of 
individual competencies will be sent out and posted on our website shortly.

This questionnaire will eventually replace our existing International 
Health Human Resources Registry (IHHRR). Those who previously registered in 
the IHHRR aree encouraged to resubmit and update their information for 
entry into the new database. This database is currently under construction 
and we expect it to be operational by late fall. The database will be used 
to match employers with potential employees, as well as to identify
individuals wishing to participate in other ways. Further announcements 
will be made on Synergy Online as this project progresses.
