Web-Based, Self-Paced Course on Health Literacy

"Unified Health Communication 101: Addressing Health Literacy,Cultural Competency, and Limited English Proficiency" is a free online course designed to help health professionals improve their patient-communication skills, increase their awareness and knowledge of factors that affect their communication with patients, and implement patient-centered communication practices.

The course, developed by the Health Resources and Services Administration, comprises five modules and is estimated to take a total of 5 hours to complete.

The course may be completed at the user's own pace and may be taken for credit (CEU/CE,CHES, CME, and CNE) or not for credit.

More information, including registration instructions, is available at the health literacy training website.
