Dear Colleagues:

=20

I recommend  The Certified Health Education Specialist Review with West Vir= ginia University- Extended Learning: http://elearn.wvu.edu/continuing/Healt=

h_Education/CHES.html

=20

It is online, excellent and affordable.

=20

I took that online course for my CHES certification and was very helpful.

=20

I collect and review online/ Distance/ programs for Health Education and Pr= omotion, that take in account Adult Learners.

=20

As adults with responsibilities, bills to pay, families to take care of and=  full time jobs, we want tailored academic opportunities to improve our ski= lls and the scope of our information.

=20

It is VERY difficult, because the traditional "brick and mortar" university=  IS NOT FRIENDLY WITH ADULT AND OLDER PEOPLE. =20 =20 To make things worst, the Health Sciences Programs have been traditionally = oriented to "be physically present" in the classroom; no many opportunities=  for all of us that have full time jobs.

=20

So thanks for all your wonderful information.

Best Regards

Marco Meneses
