  • Fall 2007 the Official Publication of the Arkansas Business Education Association
    Arkansas Business Educator Fall 2007 The official publication of the Arkansas Business Education Association Letter From The President Dear Arkansas Business Educators Fall is here again and with it comes back to school, football games, and the beauty of the changing leaves. To me fall also means “out with the old” as the earth prepares for the dormancy of winter, so that spring will bring “in with the new”. Business education is truly an “out with the old, in with the new” career. Once we think we have it all figured out…it changes. Therefore, I want to take this opportunity to commend you – the Business Educators of Arkansas. I realize how much time and effort you all put into staying abreast of the latest software, the latest equipment, and the latest teaching techniques. Your dedication to your students is amazing! Once again you made our ABEA Conference this July a huge success – thanks to all of you for your attendance. I hope you are all making plans to attend the SBEA Conference in Little Rock this October. With Kathy Woodcock serving as SBEA president and with the conference being held in our home state it provides us a great opportunity to let others know what we already know…Arkansas business educators are the best! Thank you so much for allowing me to serve as your 2007­2008 ABEA President. If I or any board member can be of assistance to you this year, please do not hesitate to call on us. Albert Camus said, “Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.” I hope as you begin a new school year, you continue to make those changes necessary to be the best you can be.

  • Student Exposure to Health Care Experiences & Careers
    STUDENT EXPOSURE TO HEALTH CARE EXPERIENCES & CAREERS Rural Health Summit Workgroup Summary Report & Guide to Programs FEBRUARY 2019 THE WINTHROP ROCKEFELLER INSTITUTE | ROCKEFELLERINSTITUTE.ORG 1 Dear Rural Health Champion, The guide you are about to explore, the Student Exposure to Health Care Experiences and Careers Resource Guide, is the joint effort between members of the health care industry who first came together at the 2018 Rural Health Summit at the Winthrop Rockefeller Institute. Inside, you will find a host of valuable information and contacts for many health care-related educational programs operating throughout Arkansas. All of them have a common goal: igniting a passion for health care in the next generation and showing them the many paths to a career in the field. At the Winthrop Rockefeller Institute we believe the best solutions spring from working collaboratively with groups that reflect diversity in all forms; diversity in thought, opinion, background and experience. I’d like to extend a special thank you to the participants of the Student Exposure to Health Care Experiences and Careers workgroup who brought tireless effort and their own personal experience in health care to bear on this guide. Their dedication and knowledge are unsurpassed and the guide is the culmination of a year of research. Through the power of their collaboration, they produced an invaluable resource for those interacting with students who are interested in working in health care. We encourage you to share the guide with any and all that could benefit from the information. All good wishes, Marta M. Loyd, Ed.D. Executive Director/CEO Winthrop Rockefeller Institute 2 ROCKEFELLERINSTITUTE.ORG | THE WINTHROP ROCKEFELLER INSTITUTE TABLE OF CONTENTS Summary ......................................................................................5 Workgroup Ideas for Next Steps.................................................................6 Workgroup Participant List.....................................................................
