VMH Continuing Education Toolkit

Monthly Webinars

For all AHEC staff. Webinars focus on the mental/behavioral health needs of veterans, service members, and their families, including issues related to post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI). The series will create a learning community among AHEC staff and give them an understanding of issues unique to those who are or have been in the military and the clinical aspects of disorders that may occur after deployment.

Train the Trainer Workshops

Train the Trainer Workshop Summary (PDF - 615 KB)

Ten face-to-face Train the Trainer (TTT) Workshops were held in January/February/March 2012 for AHEC program and center staff. Workshops equipped participants to plan continuing education (CE) programs for civilian primary care, mental/behavioral health, and other health care providers. Participants learned how to use and build on an existing curriculum to develop CE programming that meets the specific needs of providers in their communities. The curriculum was developed by the North Carolina AHEC program and the Citizen Soldier Support Program (CSSP), a Department of Defense-funded program at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill.
