Clinical Training Program

Welcome to Foothills Area Health Education Center (AHEC). Our goal is to help you gain fulfilling educational experiences by providing community-based learning opportunities and clinical experiences within the rural and urban underserved communities of northeast Georgia.

Community-based training will give you a unique opportunity to experience health care in a real world setting and interact one-on-one with your future patient population in community health centers, county health departments, local practitioners’ offices and many other community sites. Current research has shown that health care professions students who have participated in these experiences have a better understanding of the complex needs of underserved communities.

Community Based Clinical Training at Foothills AHEC is arranged by our Preceptor Coordinator, Ashley Carter. Please email Ashley Carter for more information or call our office at 770.219.8130
