About the event
The Sickle Cell Counselor Training & Certification Program (SCCTCP) is designed for healthcare professionals and paraprofessionals, community health workers & educators, and others interested in learning more about sickle cell conditions. Many individuals work in health, social services, community education organizations, medical offices, clinics, or hospitals. This course does not provide SCD care and management information for parents needing court-ordered SCD parenting classes.
People seeking a general overview and up-to-date information on sickle cell disease, sickle cell trait, and related hemoglobinopathies can take the online self-paced eLearning introductory course (Module I). Attending the introductory course will result in a certificate of completion.
