KCMHC 2025 Hidden Careers in Healthcare - Hospital Host Registration

Tuesday October 28, 2025 - 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm

Thank you for considering hosting teachers for our “Hidden Careers in Healthcare” teacher externship. Healthcare is experiencing an increase in needs from an aging population. At the same time, interest in many of the careers that support doctors and nurses are seeing enrollment declines and lack of interest. The Kansas City Metropolitan Healthcare Council (KCMHC) is partnering with Real World Learning to provide a day of learning and development for teachers to understand the vast variety of careers available for students today in healthcare – way beyond nurses and doctors.

Overview of what to expect:
Your teachers should arrive at your location between 12:30 pm and 1:00 pm and will be expecting to leave at 3:00 pm. Please provide them an overview of your career and as much “real world” experience as possible. If you have ideas of how to take it back to the classroom, the teachers would appreciate your insight.
