[Clinicians] CHAMPS Spanish Language Intensive Training September 2008

[Shannon Kolman]

Hello CHAMPS Clinician Listserv Members,

 

CHAMPS is continuing to offer preferred registration to Region VIII CHC
staff for the CHAMPS Spanish Language for Health Care Professionals
three-day training through Monday, July 14, 2008.  Beginning July 15th
CHAMPS will advertise this training beyond Region VIII to additional
CHCs and health care organizations.  Registration will continue to be
accepted on a first-come, first-serve basis due to the limited class
size.

 

Also, you can still receive a free Medical Spanish Reference Pocket Card
as an early registration incentive.  Registration must be completed by
returning the registration form, assessment form, and full payment by
July 14, 2008, to receive the pocket card incentive.

 

Registration openings and hotel room rates are subject to availability.
In order to secure participation and discounted sleeping room rates,
please register as soon as possible.

 

Following are important details about this great opportunity.

 

Dates and Times:  Thursday-Saturday, September 25-27, 2008, 8:00 a.m. -
5:00 p.m. each day

 

Course Description: This three-day course targeted for physicians,
nurses, PAs, NPs, medical assistants, dentists, pharmacists, and other
medical personnel is an intensive, individually tailored, conversational
and medical Spanish workshop consisting of medical dialogues,
role-plays, many colorful visual aids, cross-cultural discussions,
"edutainment", daily practice, and evening study with work-books and
tapes (additional fee, optional).  The course curriculum provides an
experience of immersion learning, an approach that has repeatedly proven
to be extremely suitable for those with limited time, and who must use
their new language skills immediately with their Spanish-speaking
patients about feelings, attitudes and culture.  

 

Course Fees: The registration fee is $450 for CHAMPS Members and $600
for CHAMPS Non-Members.  The registration fee includes three full days
of Spanish language instruction, course book, CME (pending approval),
continental breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack each day.   

 

Location and Lodging: The training courses and lodging will be located
at the Sheraton Denver West at 360 Union Boulevard, Lakewood, CO 80228,
720-963-2025 or toll free 800-525-3966.  The hotel is offering a block
of rooms at the rate of $119 per night (plus room tax and $10 per day
per additional person over double occupancy), but this rate is subject
to availability.  

 

CME: Continuing medical education (CME) credit has been applied for and
is pending approval.  In the past, this three-day course was accredited
for 24 credit hours.
