CHP Exam Distance Study Groups

     Fellow Radsafers:
     
     ***This is a repost of the 12/21/98 ad for the CHP Exam Distance Study 
     Groups.  There is still plenty of space available for HP professionals 
     interested in joining the groups.***
     
     E-mail/listserver/web BBS distance study groups for Parts I and II of 
     the CHP Exam are now forming.  The study groups will begin in mid 
     January 1999 and continue through exam time.
     
     These distance study groups provide a focused study cohort for Parts I 
     and II of the CHP Exam.  The groups work and review weekly assignments 
     of past CHP examinations and other related problems of interest to the 
     groups.  There are also continuous discussions of questions, theory, 
     resources, and references related to the various exam rubrics as well 
     as discussion of study tips and problem solution methods. 
     
     Last year's groups, initiated and facilitated by Chuck McLendon, P.E., 
     C.I.H., Texas Department of Health, included professionals from a 
     broad variety of HP disciplines.  Many of the 1998 group participants 
     were successful in passing Parts I and / or II of the CHP examination. 
      Feedback about the E-mail Study Group from those who passed indicated 
     that participation in the study groups was a major factor in their 
     successes.
     
     The distance study groups are of particular interest to HP 
     professionals:
     
          located where access to formal CHP exam study groups is not 
          available locally
          
          located where there may be few other HPs similarly interested in 
          studying for the examinations
          
          who otherwise may not be able to attend a CHP Exam 
          preparation/review course
     
     Anyone interested in sitting for the 1999 CHP Exam is welcome to 
     participate in the study groups.  The groups are non-commercial and 
     participation is free.
