If I am or plan to become a Community Health Worker (CHW), I acknowledge that I do or will work in a home-based (not community-based) setting."

  • All work of individual learners will be checked to ensure satisfactory completion of the course requirements clearly outlined in Module 1. Any learner who does not satisfy all of the course requirements will be ineligible for the financial incentive.

  • Any learner who does not complete the coursework within 3 weeks will be un-enrolled to allow for learners on the waitlist to enroll. Learners who are removed due to not completing coursework within 3 weeks may be allowed to re-enroll at the beginning of the course based on available incentives.

  • Caring4Cal incentives for eligible learners who complete all course requirements are limited and will be processed on a first-to-complete basis.

  • Once the maximum number of Caring4Cal incentives available for this course has been reached, no further incentives will be offered, and in-progress learners will be notified immediately.
