“CHIS On Demand” classes are for library staff interested in providing consumer health information to their community. Registration is open to anyone interested in consumer health information and outreach in their community. Through this class you can earn up to 5 Medical Library Association (MLA) continuing education credit hours that qualify towards the MLA Level 1 Consumer Health Information Specialization (CHIS). Five separate modules cover content related to the 5 Level 1 CHIS competencies:

1. Know the Community
2. Know the Health Consumer
3. Knowledge of Subject Matter and Resources
4. Evaluation of Health Information
5. Communication, Reference, and Instruction

Modules can be completed in any order. You can take 1 module or all of them. Each is designed to take 1 hour to complete. Once you finish the module, a link appears, allowing you to claim 1 hour of CE credit for the module. Each module has its own learning objectives specific to the corresponding CHIS competency.
