CHW CE Series Course
Eight Trainings. One Course. Free for Every CHW. Watch every session for free. Or upgrade and earn certified continuing education credit for all eight.
Built for CHWs, By the People Who Do This Work
Community Health Workers hold communities together. You show up in homes, clinics, shelters, and street corners. You explain what nobody else took time to explain. You keep going when the system does not make it easy. That work deserves real training — not a slideshow someone made without ever meeting a CHW. Every session in this course was created for you. Whether you are brand new to the role or have been doing this for fifteen years, you will find something here you can use on Monday.
This course is for you if....
- You are new to the CHW role and want a strong foundation
- You have been a CHW for years and need continuing education credit
- You are a CHW Instructor who needs CE hours of your own
- You supervise CHWs and want to know what good training looks like
- You are thinking about becoming a CHW and want to see what the work involves
