Learning Network 

A national learning network was established to share learning between the six participating boards. This provided a structure for knowledge building and ongoing peer support and collaboration

As well as funding for an improvement coach, participating boards received a small amount of funding to help their own internal learning systems. This was to enable pilot teams to learn from each other and prepare for scale up and spread.  This funding was used for information and communications technology equipment and the delivery of local engagement events.
