What is it?

The STAR provides a single framework in a common language and equips the user with a structure to facilitate complex workforce conversations with provider systems, bringing focus, definition and coherence to addressing workforce challenges.

The tool has two main functions:

Provide a simple, coherent framework to facilitate and guide local conversations with provider systems to better understand and define their workforce transformation requirements; and
