To be effective care providers, today鈥檚 helping professionals need more than technical skills.听They must also be attuned to clients' concerns and values and grasp the complexities of modern care bureaucracies听and they must know which types of jobs are best suited to their interests and how to manage the multiple pressures put on them as care providers. In short, helping professionals need to understand the听丑耻尘补苍听dimensions of care.听

The certificate in Care, Health and Resilience prepares undergraduates for working in the helping professions: nursing, medicine, counseling, teaching, community services, ministry, emergency management and related fields. It emphasizes the practices and knowledge expected of paid care providers, ranging from the ability to nurture clients' physical, emotional and social well-being to helping people thrive despite life-altering circumstances. It also addresses the experiences and challenges of professional caregivers,听and it advances one of the campus鈥檚 three strategic imperatives, which is to "Positively Impact Humanity."

The program's curriculum will:

• Provide students the opportunity to explore a variety of care-related occupations;
• Address the needs of suffering people and at-risk populations;
• Examine the ethical dilemmas posed by medical technologies and bureaucracies; and
• Link students to Colorado鈥檚 only academic health sciences center, the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, and other local hospitals through its internship program.

Career Possibilities

The program will integrate a variety of occupational practices in order to give students the opportunity to explore career options through an engaging internship experience. It will teach students to reflect on these practices, so they are not only able to help their future clients achieve well-being in life but also have productive and meaningful careers themselves.听Limited resources in care professions like nursing currently restrict the number of students who can be admitted in their programs.听By preparing Colorado鈥檚 students for numerous types of jobs in high-demand industries such as health care, this program will enable students to make wise career choices and pursue them successfully.
