Health Education Programming in a Box
Healthy Achievers is best known for its turn-key health education kits designed for use in the workplace. Each kit has a different theme, such as exercise, stress management, or nutrition. The kits include current, accurate information and professional-looking materials, including:
- a suggested program outline
- a short (8-10 min.) video, CD, or DVD
- reproducible print materials designed for distribution to the workforce
- materials promoting each topic such as table tents and posters
- suggested activities
- community resources
- additional optional ideas
All of Healthy Achievers' Health Education Kits have received a National Health Information Award.
Facilitator Training
The health education kits were designed to be administered by a "facilitator" whose primary duties include:
- communicating with management
- involving employees
- promoting the health education program
- organizing health promotion activities
Healthy Achievers offers facilitator training, either onsite or via telephone. The cornerstone of this training is Healthy Achievers Facilitator Guide, a comprehensive manual designed to guide the facilitator through the process of initiating and overseeing a successful worksite health education program. The Guide includes tips on setting up an onsite health promotion committee, describes how to conduct a health fair, and features a directory of national health agencies and organizations, lists of vendors and health professionals, and other resources.
