Description:  You’re invited to the Extreme Heat & Health: Strategies for Prevention and Action Training hosted by OPHA! This third session concludes our series. Our time will explore avenues of advocacy, ongoing engagement, and joining the wider Climate Ambassador community.

This OPHA programming is in partnership with APHA, Climate for Health, and EcoAmerica.

Continuing Education:  Up to 4 hours CE may be earned through series completion.  Attendees seeking continuing education or certificates of attendance must request their credits from OPHA through this linked survey within a week of the event or at end of series if attending all sessions.

Learning Areas: Professional Development

Learning Objectives:

• Describe concept of extreme heat.
• Examine communication tools for sharing about extreme heat.
• Describe 2 ways to enage with the Climate Ambassador community.

Continuing Education Fees: OPHA members pay no cost to attend and receive CE credits provided by OPHA. OPHA also provides continuing education to Oklahoma CHWs at no cost — thank you for your work improving Oklahoma's communities! All other attendees will be invoiced $15 per credit hour upon credit request effective July 1, 2024.

Continuing Education Attendance & Evaluation Policy: OPHA offers professional development opportunities and pursues approvals from credentialing bodies to offer continuing education. OPHA strives to meet the standards and competencies of credentialing agencies, and therefore attendance at an OPHA CE event does not guarantee credit. CE-seeking attendees must complete our credits and attendance certificate survey, linked here and on OPHA's homepage, for each event so that OPHA's Continuing Education Committee can ensure attendance, demonstrated learning, and provide requested CE event certificates to attendees on a quarterly basis. CE credits are ultimately awarded to participant by credentialing agency/body upon event and survey completion and the attendee reporting our provided activities.
