The American Lung Association of Minnesota (ALAMN) Asthma Educator Institute is a two-day workshop for individuals wanting to improve their ability to provide asthma education for patients and families with asthma. It is expected that many of these individuals will go on to take the certified asthma educator exam offered by NAECB and become certified asthma educators.

This workshop is designed for nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, physicians, and other credentialed professionals that have experience working with patients with asthma.
