 FALLS CHURCH, Va.,  - If you are new to Tricare and eager to learn about your health care benefits or an old hand, who wants to know the latest changes, Tricare University is the place to go. Tricare University offers free online courses 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year atwww.tricare.mil/tricareu. "The courses can be taken anytime and you can learn at your own pace," said Rear Adm. Christine Hunter, deputy director of the Tricare Management Activity. "It's the simplest way to learn about your Tricare benefit." Of the different courses online, the Tricare Public Course provides the quickest and easiest way to get a general overview and basic knowledge of Tricare programs. There is no registration for this course and it is accessible to anyone who wants to know more about Tricare. The Tricare Fundamentals Course is much more in-depth as it is primarily designed for benefit counselors and family support staff who provide counseling and assistance to Tricare beneficiaries. Topics covered include Tricare eligibility, Tricare programs and plans and online resources. Registration is needed to take the course and "graduates" who pass the test at the end of the course receive a certificate from Tricare.
