A one-day, 6-hour workshop has been scheduled and is designed to provide instructors of Registered Medication Aide Programs with program planning skills including an understanding of the regulatory requirements for Medication Aides in assisted living facilities, writing measurable learning objectives, organizing mandated curriculum, developing lesson plans, and evaluating learning of students. Participants will have an opportunity to observe, practice, and critique a variety of instructional strategies.
