Healthcare Navigation for International Workers
Navigating Healthcare Systems for Immigrant Professionals
Program overview
Healthcare Navigation for International Workers equips participants with the essential skills and knowledge to effectively maneuver through the healthcare systems in their host countries. This course emphasizes practical applications and real-world scenarios, enabling learners to understand healthcare policies, access services, and advocate for themselves and their communities. Participants will engage in project-based learning, fostering collaboration and interaction among peers while developing a comprehensive understanding of healthcare navigation.
