  • COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE - The HCD Center of Excellence offers a monthly community of practice and other HCD-related events, geared for all who have an interest. The team curates these events so that every other month there is either a focus on content pertinent to an expert practitioner or introductory content useful for anyone with an interest in HCD.
  • THOUGHT LEADERSHIP - We regularly speak at events in the community, or enlist other experts in the field, to promote current and emerging trends in the industry and provide content that might aid in your understanding of design thinking. In addition to gathering resources from our site, we publish a newsletter on topics of interest, we provide resources, and promote case studies to the community.
  • TRAINING - Did you know that training is available to everyone in the community? Employees and contractor-partners alike, we offer training on topics that can equip you to be more successful in your role. If you are a federal employee, this training may count toward your continuing education goals.
  • PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT (PRA) - There are government protections that limit burden placed upon citizens. Yet these protections sometimes limit the ability to practice HCD by engaging with the public. The HCD CoE has worked with CCSQ to gain PRA approval (i.e., CMS-10706) to regularly engage with the public to conduct rigorous qualitative research activities that you can leverage.
