Members and non-members may register with the form\, below. \nBackground on California AB 1273\nRecent legislative action in California may impact HPN's members and allied health professionals and educational programs\, broadly. The proposed bill -- AB1273 -- supports the development of "earn and learn" programs in the state of California\, which would allow students in the allied health professions to be paid for their labor during their clinical education. The bill was developed in response to projections of a severe healthcare workforce shortage in the near future across the state. \nThe Society for Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging (SNMMI) and the Nuclear Medicine Technology Certification Board (NMTCB)\, two HPN member organizations\, reached out to HPN leadership\, voicing concerns that the apprenticeship model facilitated by AB1273 would cause problems for X-ray and NMT Technologist educational programs\, whose education accreditation standards prohibit the payment of students. You can read a letter from the NMTCB\, here\, and a letter from the SNMMI\, here. \nThis would in turn raise questions about what accreditation bodies could serve as programmatic accreditors in the state of California\, thereby impacting the number of accredited programs\, and ultimately the number of students who could sit for their national certification as Nuclear Med Technologists\, which may pose the risk of  exacerbating the forecasted workforce shortage. \nAs of June 28\, the bill was re-referred to the California Senate Committee on Appropriations and will be discussed at the Senate Appropriations meeting on Thursday\, July 15.  The next day\, July 16\, the California senate will adjourn for summer recess and our experts think it unlikely that a vote to pass the bill will occur before the Senate returns on August 16.\n \nRegister\, today!\n[caldera_form id="CF60ec936a23707"] URL:http://54.175.69.178/event/virtual-discussion-debate-earn-learn/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:http://54.175.69.178/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/HPN-debate.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210518T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210518T150000 DTSTAMP:20260429T230037 CREATED:20210506T164337Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210506T171024Z UID:9800-1621342800-1621350000@54.175.69.178 SUMMARY:HPN Members-Only TalkShop Workshop DESCRIPTION:Experts in engaging virtual meeting experiences\, TalkShop Workshops conducts workshops to engage remote teams\, improve remote communications and strengthen online teamwork.
