Workshops

Continuing Health Professions Education occasionally adds workshops to our ongoing schedule of available courses. Our course offerings are mandated as continuing education for healthcare professionals, so those who attend receive certificates upon completion. Workshops, however, aren't required courses although they will earn the attendee CEUs. These topics are based upon identified community need, suggestions from health care professionals, and/or national trends.

Current workshops will always be listed on this page.
