The Alabama School of Healthcare Sciences (ASHS) will host a series of live virtual information sessions to recruit for its first freshman class. 

“We’ve met students with a calling to serve, impressive young people who already know they want to make a difference in healthcare,” said Dr. Jimmy Martin, ASHS president and CEO. “Adding virtual sessions ensures every student in Alabama, no matter where they live, can be part of this conversation.”

The sessions will outline what to expect from attending the school, according to a press release: 

  • A curriculum built through a healthcare lens, linking every subject to real-world applications;
  • Hands-on clinical experiences through partnerships with Whitfield Regional Hospital and other educational and medical institutions;
  • Opportunities to earn certifications and college credit while in high school; and
  • A residential model that brings together students from every region of Alabama to live, learn, and lead together.

“This is an extraordinary opportunity for motivated students who are already imagining their futures,” Martin said. “We’re helping them take their first steps toward careers that matter to their communities, to our state, and to the lives they’ll touch through healthcare.”
