In 2001, the Department of Health and Social Services contracted with Information Insights to conduct and in-depth study of its workforce using a planning model developed for the US Department of Health and Human Services. The study included an analysis of the current workforce, identifying Department objectives and the workforce competencies needed to achieve them, comparing present workforce competencies to those needed in the future, and developing recommendations for the transition of the present workforce to the future workforce. The project included analysis of workforce and financial information, policies and procedures, and more than 20 focus groups with Department employees throughout Alaska.
