Healthcare training schools in Tennessee

The partnership begins this month and allows high school students to work toward earning an associate degree while they are still earning their high school diploma.

The new program, Psychology of Personal and Societal Wellness, will include a capstone internship at a mental health facility and will award students with a Mental Health Technician Certificate.

The gift comes from Bonnie Carroll and her husband Roy Cooper, who decided to support the facility after receiving a tour and recognizing the importance of the Knox Regional Health Science Education Center for the community.
