South Dakota Allied Health Training Consortium

The South Dakota Allied Health Training Consortium will implement the following strategies to expand and enhance the education and training opportunities in Health Care courses. Emphasis will be placed on serving rural communities and reservations to provide participants opportunities to continue to work while building a portfolio of stackable credentials. Many of the courses in this program lattice allowing students the opportunity to switch programs or add to their credentials. Goals include: 1) Increase the number of adults earning certificates, degrees, diplomas, and nationally recognized certificates in two years or less. 2) Replicate innovative and effective methods for designing and delivering instruction that addresses specific industry needs and leads to improved learning. 3) Improved learning outcomes of participants.
