  • gain insight into community health matters, cultural issues in healthcare and wellness, bioethics, and nutrition.
  • explore techniques for helping clients make lifestyle changes that incorporate alternative medicine and exercise.
  • discover how to work with electronic health records, payment systems, and nutrition-related software.
  • develop best practices and content for health-based websites.
