Foundational Education

Our Foundational Education program is tailored for new providers and staff joining an existing clinic. This training is also valuable as a refresher to enhance your CHR knowledge. Depending on your clinic’s needs, we offer flexible training options, including multiple web or conference calls, or a single virtual or onsite training session.
