The public health laboratories are vital components of the nation’s health infrastructure but they currently lack opportunities for training and professional development.  The Public Health and Clinical Laboratory Science and Practice Program is designed to provide advanced practice professionals the skills they need to qualify for the national board examinations to become laboratory leaders.  The coursework was designed and implemented by professionals in laboratory leadership positions across the country with an emphasis on enhancing laboratory leadership, management, and scientific expertise.
