Training on the Clinical Laboratory Improvement
Amendments of 1988
CDC, the Association of State and Territorial Public Health
Laboratory Directors, the National Laboratory Training Network, and
the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services are
cosponsoring a training course titled "Directing the Laboratory
Performing Moderate Complexity Tests: Quality Laboratory Management
for Meeting CLIA '88 Requirements" on June 9, 16, and 23. The
course will provide physicians with knowledge of principles of
laboratory practice. Although the course was designed for
physicians practicing in the public health sector who will direct
or supervise laboratory testing, other physicians are invited to
participate.
The course will consist of self-study printed materials and
three live, interactive videoconferences broadcast nationwide via
satellite. The course manual will include guidelines needed to
operate laboratories in compliance with CLIA '88 standards. Twenty
continuing medical education credits will be awarded to registrants
who attend all three videoconferences and complete theself-study
materials.
Registration for the course will continue through May 15,
1993. Registration packets, course materials, and information
about videoconference locations are available from the Association
of State and Territorial Public Health Laboratory Directors, 1211
