From: Rob L Christian [mailto:rob.christian@baptist-health.org] At the last AAHP Board meeting, I was asked to post some info on this. This is a fairly new program that was started by ASHP to help meet the need for future Leaders in our profession. This is a year long program, comprised of 9 month long modules, each containing reading assignments, a web based presentation by the faculty, and then a conference call of all the current PLA students. This is not only a great learning and networking experience, but also a way to obtain 84 hours of ACPE approved C.E. This year's class has already been selected, so check the site below later in the Spring for info on signing up for 2011.
Please go to this site for any further information:
Thanks,
