Project HEALTH Workshop Slated at NARH

- March 17, 2008

NORTH ADAMS — The Berkshire County Regional Employment Board's Project HEALTH initiative will hold a readiness workshop series for incumbent workers, career changers, unemployed and others who are interested in pursuing training and higher education in the health-care field.

The initiative, Helping Employers Access Labor Talent in Health care, is a partnership of private employers, higher-education institutions, local high schools and public resources that was designed to address the shortage of health-care staff by upgrading the skills of existing staff and recruiting future workers.

The course is designed to introduce skills that are fundamental to further education and employment in that field. Topics will include time management, communication and study skills, medical terminology, conflict resolution, problem solving, and examination of personal goals and learning styles.

The series will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays, April 1 to 24, from 1 to 3 p.m. at a classroom on the North Adams Regional Hospital campus. It is open to all people living or working in Berkshire County and is provided free of charge through a grant from the Workforce Competitiveness Trust Fund.

Berkshire Health Systems, Berkshire Healthcare Systems, Northern Berkshire Health and Northern Berkshire Community Services, have agreed to provide paid release time to eligible employees attending this course.

For more information, or to register, contact Marya LaRoche, Project HEALTH director, 413-442-7177, Ext. 100.
