To support informed individuals as they seek to take charge of their health and well-being. To promote and support respect, to enable the right to adequate and accurate information, and to foster compassion for all people. The CEKI envisions the day when society, including individuals and communities, employees and employers, programs and institutions, and government work together to promote the health and well-being of all people. The CEKI believes that this vision will be accomplished through the reform of the learning process that pervades all of society so that it embodies six key principles. Everyone is both learner and teacher.
Individuals are responsible for their own learning.
The goal of teachers is to enable and empower individuals to become independent learners. The individual is only fully served when learning addresses the physical, mental, social, and spiritual aspects of learning and of life. Team Orientation Individuals understand that learning goals require cooperative means, with learners working together for the common good. Emphasis on communication Skills Learners and teachers, alike, are trained together to be listeners as well as communicators to others. Communication is the basic essential in the process of acquiring and using knowledge.
