The National Health Education Standards Poster

This professional development tool helps educators make the connection between assessment and achievement of National Health Education Standards.

This poster illustrates how the National Health Education Standards are hierarchical from a growth and development point of view. Knowing core health concepts forms a base. Students apply these concepts through increasingly complex skills as health literacy improves.

The NHES poster provides a quick way to gauge the level of health literacy represented by each of the standards within the National Health Education Standards.
