Telemedicine
ANTHC’s telehealth services allow healthcare professionals to work together in the Tribal health system to provide quality care and increased access for Alaska Native people across the state.
TABE Testing
Community Health Aide Trainees (CHA/T) are required to demonstrate a 6th-grade education equivalent (8th grade in some regions). To achieve this we administer The Adult Basic Education Test or TABE test. The test is performed on an iPad using the DRC Insight app or can be installed on a desktop computer. A test proctor is required to administer and monitor the test. It’s also important to take the test in a location with reliable internet.
TABE 13-14 Grade-Score Guidance – Convert TABE score into grade-based scores.
Contact Kyle vonBose for TABE test information

Pre-Session
On November 6, 2023, the online Pre-Session course was updated. The Pre-Session was reviewed and thoughtfully revised. The course has 8 lessons and should take a trainee an average of 8 hours to complete. Distance Learning Network. There is no curriculum for Pre-Session and each THO is able to decide what it wants their CHA-Trainees to learn.
The Pre Session Skills Checklist can be found on the Resources page under Skills Checklists. It is a guide and each THO can edit the skills to fit their needs.
To enroll a Trainee in the Pre-Session course, a THO designee will need to email the name and email naduclos@anthc.org with the address of the Trainee. Emails will be accepted on the 1st and 15th of the month. There is a completion certificate once the online Pre-Session course is completed. This should be included in the student’s Session 1 Basic Training application.
