To meet the high demand for skilled workers in health care and advanced manufacturing, three higher education institutions in Kansas recently strengthened their training in these fields through a U.S. Department of Labor’s Trade Adjustment Assistance Community College and Career Training program. From 2013 to 2018, the Washburn Institute of Technology, Washburn University, and the Wichita State University Campus of Applied Sciences and Technology partnered with employers to develop industry-aligned career pathways by introducing new specialties, upgrading curricula and equipment, and introducing new credentials and options for further education. This chapter describes the changes that the institutions made to equip their students with the skills needed to meet critical workforce needs.

While conducting my dissertation research on the professionalization of breastfeeding support, I identified key “founders” of lactation consulting. I focused on the people involved in the formation of the International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, as certified by the International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners and represented by the International Lactation Consultant Association. Jan Riordan was at the top of my list. As the editor and co-author of the first text on breastfeeding and human lactation for non-physicians, Dr. Riordan shaped the professional body of knowledge for International Board Certified Lactation Consultants and others providing clinical breastfeeding support. She was a La Leche League leader and founding member of the Kansas La Leche League International Chapter, served on the first International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiners Board of Directors, and served on the first editorial review board of the Journal of Human Lactation. She was a professor of nursing at Wichita State University for 23 years. I met her at an International Lactation Consultant Association conference in San Antonio, Texas in 2010, just after she had retired from Wichita State, and I interviewed her by phone on August 10, 2010. This is from a taped interview. (AE = Aimee Eden’s initials; JR = Jan Riordan’s initials). The University of South Florida IRB approved the full study.

Davis Merritt é uma lenda no Jornalismo internacional. Lenda no melhor sentido que a palavra pode ter. Autor de quatro livros (o mais recente em 2015, chamado On life, liberty and the pursuit of perfect), esteve no topo do Jornalismo americano por mais de quatro décadas, atuando especialmente para a cadeia Knight Newspapers. Atuou como professor na University of Kansas e na Wichita State University. E, entre 1975 e 1997, atuou na liderança do Wichita Eagle, um diário no qual faria história, ao lançar as bases do que hoje se conhece como Civic Journalism (CJ), uma proposta fundada na visão de que, mais do que simplesmente denunciar problemas da vida em sociedade, o jornalista deve pensar em soluções e, especialmente, estimular a participação do cidadão na vida coletiva.Na entrevista a seguir, Merritt compartilha informações preciosas sobre esse movimento que surgiu no final da década de 1980, ganhou corpo nos anos 1990 e começou a definhar a partir de 2000. No auge, o Civic Journalism era notícia e produzia notícias nos EUA, Colômbia, Bolívia, Argentina, Brasil, Portugal, Espanha e em muitos outros países. Agora, mais de 30 anos depois de suas primeiras inquietações sobre os rumos de então do Jornalismo, Merritt rememora os tempos inaugurais (inclusive destacando o papel de Jay Rosen, considerado o outro criador do Civic Journalism), esclarece a questão Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (que, aliás, ele prefere, como se percebe em todas as suas respostas) e pensa sobre o tempo presente.Sobre este quesito Civic Journalism / Public Journalism, cabe destacar o que segue: todos as perguntas feitas a Merritt fazem menção ao Civic Journalism, já que esta é a denominação mais conhecida no Brasil e em outras nações. Merritt, como ponderado antes, prefere Public Journalism (PJ). Por uma questão de respeito à opinião do entrevistado, mantivemos PJ em suas respostas. Essa dualidade, inclusive, é parte da riqueza dessa conversa sobre uma das mais inovadoras formas de se pensar e fazer Jornalismo nos últimos 50 anos.

Davis Merritt is a legend in International Journalism. Legend in the best sense that the word can have. Author of four books (the most recent in 2015, called On life, liberty and the pursuit of perfect), has been at the top of American Journalism for more than four decades, working especially for the Knight Newspapers chain. He served as a professor at the University of Kansas and at Wichita State University. Between 1975 and 1997, he served as head of the Wichita Eagle, a diary in which he would make history, laying the foundations of what is now known as Civic Journalism (CJ), a proposal founded on the idea that, rather than simply denouncing life's problems in society, the journalist must think about solutions and, especially, stimulate citizen participation in collective life.In the following interview, Merritt shares invaluable information about this movement that emerged in the late 1980s, gained in the 1990s, and began to languish in 2000. In its maximum moment, the Civic Journalism was news and produced news in the US, Colombia , Bolivia, Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, Spain and many other countries. Merritt recalls the inaugural times (including highlighting the role of Jay Rosen, considered the other creator of CJ), clarifies the Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (more than 30 years after his initial concerns about Journalism's, so he prefers, as one perceives in all his answers) and thinks about the present time.On this issue Civic Journalism / Public Journalism (PJ), it is possible to emphasize what follows: all the questions made to Merritt make mention to the Civic Journalism, since this is the denomination better known in Brazil and in other places. As a matter of respect for the interviewee's opinion, we kept PJ in his responses. This duality is part of the richness of this talk about one of the most innovative ways of thinking and doing Journalism in the last 50 years.

Upon entering the workplace, speech-language pathologists (SLPs) are required to work on interprofessional teams, yet many of these professionals have not received adequate preservice instruction on how to collaborate. Furthermore, collaborating to provide services for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been found to improve developmental outcomes; however, many SLPs are not prepared to engage in this type of collaborative practice. Based on the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association’s (ASHA) recommendation that university programs include interprofessoinal education (IPE) into Communication Sciences and Disorders programs, coupled with the need to prepare students to provide interprofessional services for children with ASD, Wichita State University developed a field-based interprofessional diagnostic team for SLP students. The process used to develop this team followed Pickering and Embry’s recommended steps for cultivating interprofessional collaboration within a university environment. The purpose of this article is to describe the procedures used to develop the team and activities used to target competencies for interprofessional collaborative practice.
