What is belonging? Why is this critical for learning? In this episode, hosts Rob Lawrence and Dr. Maia Dorsett welcome expert guests, Dan Batsie, Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety for the State of Vermont; Dr. Heather Davis, Director of Assessment, UCLA School of Medicine, also taskforce chair of the IDEA Taskforce; and Ginger Locke, Prodigy’s newest team member (also Associate Professor of EMS Professions at Austin Community College).
Collectively they discuss the essential role that belonging plays in education, professional development, and organizational culture. Tune in to explore how to create inclusive environments that encourage connection, trust, and teamwork.
We also took a moment to honor and congratulate Prodigy’s Medical Director, Dr. Dorsett on being recognized as the NAEMT EMS Medical Director of the Year 2024. We couldn’t be more proud of Maia on this achievement.
