What is AHEC?
The Northeast Ohio AHEC supports graduate medicine, pharmacy and other health professions education for the recruitment, training and retention of health care professionals.
AHEC Centers
Four AHECs work together to plan and develop educational programs based on their assessments of local resources, health personnel needs and the interests of each community.
Scholars Program
The AHEC Scholars Program is designed as a supplement to students’ existing health professionals program to learn interprofessional team-based education with both urban and rural populations in underserved communities.
Program Staff
The Northeast Ohio AHEC program offices are located within the Department of Family and Community Medicine at NEOMED. The program office links four community-based centers in the region.
Reporting
Proper documentation and reporting assists AHEC in continued recruitment, training, and professional continuing education activities.
