2021 NATIONAL SAFETY EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR
CareerSafe is honored to recognize Dr. Kelly Eichmann—instructor for the Patient Care Pathway at Clovis East High School, in Clovis, California—as our 2021 National Safety Educator of the Year.

She uses her expertise and passion to create a competitive, engaging, and highly effective hands-on learning environment based upon the foundations of safety and community.
CareerSafe looks forward to witnessing the continual success of Dr. Eichmann and her students, and we thank Dr. Eichmann for her dedication to safety education. To learn more about Dr. Eichmann's innovative work, be sure to read the CareerSafe Blog.
