This article reports on the launch of a series of interactive learning sessions by the Community Health Planning and Policy Development (CHPPD) Section of the American Public Health Association in the U.S. in April 2008. The sessions will be delivered via Webcasts, podcasts and blogs. According to Darrell Montgomery, chair of the initiative's planning group, the effort will bring added value to members as it furthers the knowledge and depth of the dialogue around emerging public health policy issues. The Webinars will initially be open only to CHPPD Section members.
