| Hello-
My name is Deborah Franko and I am the current chair for the
North Carolina Coalition for Health Education (NCCHE). The mission
of the NCCHE is to impact positively the lives of North Carolinians
by improving the quality of health education across all practice
settings. The purpose of the NCCHE is to advocate with a strong,
unified voice for the profession and for excellence in the practice
of health education.
The NCCHE has avidly been working on creating two brochures
for your use and they are attached below. The brochure "Health
Education: An Exciting Career!" will help assist to attract
students to the health education
field. In addition, it addresses important issues such as where
to get a degree in health education in North Carolina and specific
details regarding health education and practice settings.
The brochure "Enhance Your Organizations Effectiveness:
Hire a Health Educator" offers information on skills that
a health educator can bring to your organization, academic preparation/certifications
that a health educator may have and specific interview questions.
Please print these brochures (1,
2) and
distribute as you see necessary. They should be printed on a
standard 8.5 X 11 inch card stock paper. The NCCHE will have
copies of these brochures available in the near future by requesting
via e-mail at NCCHE@yahoo.com.
Thank you for your continued efforts to make health education
a viable and exciting career in North Carolina!
