How do I best prepare for the national certifying exams?
AHIMA publishes a wide variety of books, journals, tapes, CD-ROMs and other materials related to health information management. These are used by faculty and students in the education process. Visit AHIMA at http://www.ahima.org. AHIMA presents a variety of seminars and workshops related to the profession. These are attended by program faculty in order to obtain information that is then relayed to the students. Students are also welcome to participate in these seminars as desired. Because the profession is changing rapidly with the advent of new information technology, changes in the practice of medicine, new laws related to the profession, etc. it is critical that all HIM professionals attend continuing education programs when possible. This will also be expected of HIT graduates when employed in the field.
