- $1,000 to be awarded following completion of the online training program, Collaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) course, teleconference, pre-project chart review, staff meeting, and submission of an implementation plan (approximately May 2013).
- $1,000 to be awarded following completion of all phases of the program, including an evaluation survey (approximately January 2014).
