BEAM-SD is dedicated to offering ongoing professional development and continuing education for primary care, school-based, and behavioral health professionals across the state of South Dakota. Education and training will be offered through the ECHO® (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) platform. The ECHO® platform will be used to increase knowledge, competence, and confidence in professionals supporting behavioral and mental health care for children and adolescents and their families. ECHO® includes learning and sharing best practices, mentorship through case-based learning, and professional discussions to support knowledge in practice.
Providers and professionals are able to earn Continuing Medical Education (CME) credits and Continuing Education (CEU) credits by attending these training sessions.
BEAM-SD partners with the American Academy of Pediatrics, The School-Based Health Alliance, and the EMSC Innovation and Improvement Center to increase awareness of Communities of Practice (CoP) specific to pediatric behavioral health needs. This page is continuously updated with these opportunities.
The AAP National Rural Adolescent and Child Health (NRACH) ECHO Training Center, in collaboration with ECHO Autism Communities, is recruiting pediatric primary care clinicians for a 10-month AAP ECHO Autism: Primary Care learning collaborative.
This 10-month AAP ECHO Autism: Primary Care learning collaborative is designed for pediatric care clinicians who are ready to deepen their knowledge and self-efficacy around autism screening, early identification, and longitudinal care. Participants will engage in case-based learning with national experts and peers, gaining practical strategies to deliver best practices in autism care.
Participation is by application only, and space is limited. We are seeking committed clinicians ready to learn and lead in this critical area of pediatric care.
