  • Longitudinal Clinical Rotations 
    • Longitudinal Clinical Rotation means a continuous clinical immersion in TTOUR primary care sites/delivery systems for a duration of one eight-week or two four-week periods within an academic year. The rotations must be at least twenty hours per week per trainee. 
  • Apprenticeship Program for Community Health Workers:  
    • A Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP) is a proven model of apprenticeship that has been validated by the U.S. Department of Labor or a State Apprenticeship Agency. Recipient organizations that are tribes or tribal organizations may request to use the Indian Health Service Community Health Aide Program model of apprenticeship. An apprenticeship is a proven approach for preparing workers for jobs while meeting the needs of business for a highly-skilled workforce. It is an employer-driven, “learn-while-you-earn” model that combines on-the- job training, provided by the employer that hires the apprentice, with job-related instruction in curricula tied to the attainment of national skills standards. 
  • Age-Friendly Recognition Initiatives: 
    • The purpose of the Geriatrics Workforce Enhancement Program (GWEP) is to educate and train the health care and supportive care workforces to care for older adults by collaborating with community partners. Applicants must maximize patient and family engagement to address care gaps and improve health outcomes for older adults by integrating geriatrics with primary care and other appropriate specialties using the Age-Friendly Health Systems Framework.
