5/29/2012 – Researchers Hold Focus Groups to Improve Two-Generation

As part of the ongoing evaluation of the Community Action Project of Tulsa County’s (CAPTC) CareerAdvance® program, Center researchers traveled to Tulsa May 21-23 to conduct focus groups with participants and interview program staff and training instructors. Researchers met with students in the Certified Nurse Assistant, Primary Care Technician, Medical Assisting, and Licensed Practical Nursing training programs to gather information about their experiences with CareerAdvance® and finding healthcare-related employment, as well as to get their input on opportunities for program improvement. Researchers will prepare a memo for CareerAdvance® staff summarizing findings and identifying areas for further research.
