This course and these modules are being field tested in Washington State at:
- Seattle Public Schools (at Ballard, Garfield, Franklin, Nathan Hale and Roosevelt High Schools),
- Foster High School in Tukwila, Chelan High School, and
- Washington Network for Innovative Careers (WANIC) which serves 8 school districts (Bellevue, Everett, Issaquah, Lake Washington, Mercer Island, Northshore, Riverview, and Snoqualmie Valley). See this WANIC video highlighting the Systems Medicine program.
