Health Promotion 101 http://www.ohprs.ca/hp101

HP101 Web Conferences, March 03 - March 28, 2005

Launched in January 2005, Health Promotion 101 is an on-line,
self-directed course designed for health promotion practitioners as well
as those interested in learning more about the field of health promotion.
The course was developed collaboratively by the members of the Ontario
Health Promotion Resource Centre System (OHPRS), with funding from the
Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (OMHLTC).

The course consists of nine modules addressing the key aspects of health
promotion theory and practice, including key definitions and concepts,
models of health, theories of behaviour, organization and community
change, and health promotion values and strategies. The material presented
in the course will help learners to familiarize themselves with essential
health promotion concepts and, in so doing, increase their capacity to
promote healthy changes in individuals, organizations and communities. The
course can be accessed at http://www.ohprs.ca/hp101.

To provide learners with an opportunity to discuss the course material and
share reflections with their colleagues, The Health Communication Unit
(THCU) is hosting a series of web-based conferences. These interactive
learning events are scheduled to take place on the following dates:  *
Thursday, March 3, 2:30–4:00 p.m.
* Friday, March 18, 9:00–10:30 a.m.
* Tuesday, March 29, 2:30–4:00 p.m
