MAGEC South is authorized to partner with established organizations in supporting geriatric education programs targeted to professionals serving older adults. Preference in funding will be given to collaborative programs that focus on interdisciplinary practice. The educational/training programs must focus on improving the health care of older adults, and the target group must include professionals, educators or students involved in teaching, learning or providing health care to elders. We cannot provide funding to train support staff, volunteers, or family caregivers — while we highly value the contributions of these groups, they are outside the parameters of this funding source. Please only submit proposals for geriatric education for professionals.
