Understanding the importance of extracurricular activities, North Campus, the “Campus of Choice” would like to invite you to be part of a new special organization:  The Future Health Professionals Club (FHPC). We know from experience that students enjoy taking their Liberal Arts & Sciences courses on the campus where their intended program of study is housed—now you can reap the benefits of official membership in one of the most prestigious student organizations at Florida Community College. 

When you are a member of The Future Health Professionals Club, the benefits are endless!  Imagine being able to:

  • meet and begin lasting mentoring relationships with the phenomenal program faculty and staff
  • talk to other students who have already begun the professional phase about their experiences
  • experience “shadowing” experiences in labs on campus and at off campus clinical sites
  • participate in workshops and information sessions on time and resource management to facilitate your success in your chosen program
  • gain access to and assistance with special health-related textbook and tuition scholarships
  • become eligible for drawings for scholarships and special program-related merchandise
  • attend prep sessions for the health programs’ admission tests, the Health Occupations Test (HOT)  and the Nursing Aptitude Test (NAT)
  • obtain free registration for the meet-n-greet and various sessions at the annual Patient Safety Conference
  • get a jump start on registration through specific priority advising appointments
  • receive access to complimentary North Campus services (Mallard Room, Cosmetology Arts, Dental Cleaning, Massage)
  • add the professional club membership to your vita (resume) and co-curricular transcript

We hope you will seriously consider joining the Future Health Professionals Club and believe it is the beginning of a lifelong commitment to knowledge, networking and, of course, fun!  The 2008-2009 FHPC faculty advisor is Pamela Avent, Professor of Nursing   Look for details soon regarding the first meeting in October.
