The content and objectives are also targeted for Athletic Trainers, School Nurses, LPN's, RN's, CRT's, RT's, insurance providers, and students and any professional that has any interest of involvement with patients or families living with asthma. Certified asthma educators (AE-Cs) may find value in this course as professional development to better serve their patient/parent/advocate knowledge.
