The Veterans Health Initiative (VHI) is part of the Office of Public Health and Environmental Hazards.  This program was developed to recognize the connection between certain health effects and military service, to allow military medical history to be better documented, and to prepare health care providers to better serve their veteran patients. The independent study courses below have been developed to deliver important education and information in the specified areas.
