TB 101 for Health Care WorkersB

Greetings!

Welcome to the e-newsletter for the Find TB Resources Website (findtbresources.cdc.gov). The purpose of this monthly newsletter is to inform you about the featured Highlight of the Month, additional helpful resources in the database, and other updates to the website.

Highlight of the Month

This month's highlight is the web-based course, TB 101 for Health Care Workers, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Division of Tuberculosis Elimination (DTBE). TB 101 for Health Care Workers was developed as a collaborative effort between CDC and the four TB Regional Training and Medical Consultation Centers (RTMCCs). The course is designed to educate health care workers about basic concepts related to TB prevention and control in the United States. The target audience for the course includes newly hired TB program staff and health care workers in areas related to TB (such as individuals who work in correctional facilities or HIV/AIDS clinics).
