A Prescription for Training Healthcare Workers in Tennessee (RX TN)

A Prescription for Healthcare Training in Tennessee (RX TN) is designed to improve the opportunities to TAA-eligible workers and others in healthcare related training while at the same time meet the needs of the healthcare employers and industry. The project contains a strong Student Support Prescription component designed to serve students and potential students to prepare for and make good decisions in selecting healthcare training as well as being successful once they start training to complete and obtain employment. While the Student Support Prescription component is designed to serve students across the healthcare career lattice at the 13 Tennessee Community Colleges and 27 Tennessee Technology Centers, the proposal also contains Training Prescriptions to address specific occupational training components that are currently not available or need enhanced/expanded to meet the needs of employers and industry in specific regions and across the state.
