- Leadership for Healthcare Improvement - this is a 2-day course designed to give health care leaders an introduction to quality improvement.
- Practical Methods for Healthcare Improvement - this intensive interprofessional course is designed to develop local quality improvement leaders who are capable of independently planning and conducting improvement projects and who can serve as resources to others as part of their career progression. The course also covers a broad range of related topics to support growth as leaders. The format includes about 40 hours of scheduled online class sessions spaced over 6 months plus self-paced learning, all structured around a project.
