Wk 2 Summative Assessment: Career Planning Response
Imagine you are applying for a scholarship offered by an industry organization (such as HIMSS or ACHE). As part of the application process, the organization would like you to describe how the BSHA will enable you to advance your health care career. Understanding how the BSHA curriculum can help you gain crucial industry knowledge and skills will help you create connections to the industry and will help with your personal career planning.
Preparing for the Assessment
Refer to the Online Healthcare Degrees page (BSHA-specific) of the University of Phoenix website and the information you gained from the HIMSS or ACHE websites to help you with this assessment.
Perform an internet search for a professional organization in a health care environment that you are interested in (e.g., hospital, pediatric, mental health, addiction). Consider creating an account as a student (if applicable) to gain access to updates, question boards, and new regulations.
