Overview
Formerly the Health Professions Education, this program is designed to support select Student Faculty at CAHS Branch Campuses, Additional Instructional Locations, and Other Instructional Sites. The Education and Training Administration and Leadership program (ETAL) is intended to enhance the efficacy of instruction, administration, and leadership of education and training programs. The design is aligned with the established instructor competencies and tasks required by the US Army, the US Navy and the US Air Force.
The program requires students to demonstrate and apply principles of evidence-based instructional methods, instructional technology, both written and spoken communication, as well as administration and leadership skills. Additionally, students are required to complete basic and advanced instructional internships under the supervision of qualified CAHS faculty. All ETAL coursework may be included in undergraduate degree plans of the CAHS.
Enlisted service members assigned to instructor positions at branch campuses, and those at additional locations and other instructional sites who teach in a CAHS program are eligible to enroll in the degree program upon completion of any service-specific Instructor Qualification / Basic Instructor course. Once enrolled students are able to complete two internships that equates to fifteen semester hours of credit, which is the minimum residence requirement for award of the Associate of Science in Health Sciences degree. A student who successfully completes the internships in residence, and meets all other graduation requirements, may be awarded the Associate of Science in Health Sciences degree with a Major in Education and Training Administration and Leadership.
