 NEW IN 2013! |
CEGEP Champlain - St. Lawrence is pleased to announce that it will offer a new new course entitled Introduction to Medical Terminology this winter, from February 16 to April 28, 2013. Supported by a grant from Entente Canada-Québec, this credit course is designed for nursing students and health professionals who want to gain a more thorough understanding of medical terms in English and/or want to expand their knowledge base. It will be offered intensively during two weekends (at the beginning and end of the course) and online for 9 weeks with the teacher using state-of-the-art technology.
Do you have friends or family members studying Nursing or working in health-related fields who want to improve their skills to better communicate with their English patients? We believe this new course can help!
Potential students may be interested in knowing that they can apply for financial assistance to attend the weekend sessions in Quebec City if they live more than 100 kilometres from the college. Information brochures in both English and French are available on St. Lawrence's website: www.slc.qc.ca/academics/continuing-education
