    Hi Nathan,

    Yes this is possible. You can either do it as standard MVC. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20799658/how-can-i-pass-parameters-to-a-partial-view-in-mvc-4

    For Umbraco what I do is.

    Change the inherits line at the top on your partial view from its default

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage
    

    to Something like either of these depending on what you want to do.

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<string>
    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<int>
    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<YourClass>
    

    Then in your view page you can call the partial view liek this.

    @Html.Partial("~/views/partials/yourPartial.cshtml", YourObjectHere)
    

    So going off your description if your are handling featured staff profiles I assume you are dealing with a list of IPublishedContent.

    Your partial should look something like this.

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<IEnumerable<IPublishedContent>>
    

    Then your view might look something like this.

    @Html.Partial("~/views/partials/staffProfiles.cshtml", Model.FeaturedStaffProfiles)
    

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    David
