ACHI Education Committee
The ACHI Education Committee is a standing committee of the Association for Community Health Improvement composed of volunteers from the Association's membership, including representatives from the ACHI Advisory Council. The Committee partners with and advises staff in the following areas:
- an educational framework to guide ACHI's program offerings;
- educational programs' proposal submission, review and selection processes;
- content delivery methods appropriate for different learning objectives, educational content, and styles of learning;
- guidelines for and expectations of ACHI, presenters and programs;
- development of competency-based educational programs; and
- evaluation, innovation and quality improvement.
Propose an Educational Webinar for ACHI
As part of our commitment to learning from the experiences and practices of the field, you are invited to propose a session at any time. The Committee will review proposals three times each year and make invitations to present.
The first proposal due date is May 31, 2012. These proposals will be reviewed in June, and potential speakers notified of the outcome by July.
