IPHCA has trained nearly 1,000 students through our student program, “Understanding and Serving America’s Underserved: An Introduction to Community Health Centers.” This program is a great way to learn more about programs designed to provide high quality care to underserved patients, specifically Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs)/Community Health Centers (CHCs). Our tracks are approximately 2 hours and designed based on discipline such as Medical (MD/DO), Dental (DDS/DMD, RDH), Nurse Practitioner, Physician Assistant, MPH, Behavioral Health, undergraduate level/community college, and high school.

This self-paced virtual experience will include:

  • FQHC 101
  • Interviews with healthcare professionals working in this setting
  • Examples of career opportunities and career pathways available in FQHCs
  • Loan repayment and scholarship opportunities
  • Exposure to the importance of integrated services

Not only is this event a great resume builder, IPHCA has helped many past student attendees connect with their current employers.
