SGEC Webinar Series NEW FOR 2009-2010

in Collaboration with
California Area Health Education Centers
We are taking this opportunity to let you know about a new educational series we are offering: WEBINARS. This series was developed as a way to stay current in the field of ethno-geriatrics.
Each month, one of our faculty members will present a new topic designed to share useful information. These webinars are open to everyone, but only with PRIOR REGISTRATION.
Who is this webinar series for?
Health and social service professionals who wish to improve their capacity to assess dementia and to work with families of various backgrounds to deal with the issues surrounding dementia.
What technology do you need to participate in the series?
All you need is a computer with access to the Internet and speakers or a headphone to hear the presenters. Our service is compatible with Windows & Macintosh systems. You will be sent presenter slides via e-mail ahead of the program.
Continuing Education Units are available for Nurses, Social Workers and Marriage and Family Therapists. (You must attend the live webinar session and complete a post questionnaire to receive your CEU).
