Dear AAPA Members,
In support of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ASCP has sought to collaborate with both clinical and public health laboratory professions and the CDC. Through that, the CDC OneLab Initiative was developed. A core objective of the OneLab Initiative is supporting the laboratory workforce by creating a sustainable community of practice including both clinical and public health laboratory professionals (the OneLab Network) as well as a centralized learning management system for laboratory trainings (OneLab REACH).
Additionally, to address workforce shortage within the laboratory, the ASCP formed a Workforce Steering Committee. This committee focuses on promoting the laboratory profession through initiatives that will increase the availability of clinical laboratory workforce supply and strengthen the pathways into and among these careers long into the future. The Workforce Steering Committing has reached out to us, a partner organization, asking for support in helping in disseminate CDC OneLab content to our membership as this could be a valuable resource in both anatomic and clinical pathology.
We believe that CDC OneLab content is highly applicable within our scope of practice, as it could provide our members with training on lab safety, foundational information about CLIA, laboratory informatics, public health emergency preparedness, and more. We believe this supports our mission’s goal to encourage networking as well as sharing educational opportunities from our partner organizations.
