Today's health professionals and leading healthcare associations collaborated to create ExploreHealthCareers.org, which is designed to help people start down the road toward a career in health. Provides easy access to updated, peer-reviewed career descriptions that inspire and motivate students to find health careers that suit them. ExploreHealthCareers.org's mission is to help solve two urgent problems in U.S health care: the under-representation of minorities in the workforce, and the shortage of health professionals in medically underserved areas.

Tips for identifying "accreditation mills" or "degree mills" (CHEA)
In their quest for higher education and training, students and the public in the United States sometimes encounter “degree mills” – dubious providers of educational offerings or operations that offer certificates and degrees that may be considered bogus. They may also encounter “accreditation mills” – dubious providers of accreditation and quality assurance that may offer a certification of quality of institutions without a proper basis. The CHEA site provides guidance for identifying "accreditation mills" or "degree mills."
