As defined by this program, a Health Professional Training Program is a program authorized under Titles III, VII and VIII of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act which focuses all or in part on the training of health professionals. HRSA is announcing the availability of funds to support multiple programs in the purchase of health professions training equipment.
