State of CAHME Webinar

On July 16, 2024, CAHME management and board leadership presented how CAHME is working to fulfill our mission – advance the quality of healthcare management education. More than 220 people registered for the event.

Using the March 2024 independent research study and the 2021 Reimagining the Accreditation Process, presenters examined how feedback from the field contributed to CAHME’s strategies and operational effectiveness.

Key takeaways:

• Using Robotic Process Automation to super charge the search process on our Core Learning Center.
• Intensive efforts to increase site visitor inter-rater reliability.
• More advanced benchmarking capability through CAHME’s annual report process.
• Tools and processes that site visitors and program directors can use to minimize accreditation fatigue.
• The status of our 2026 standards.
• The March 23, 2025 Master Class that precedes ACHE Congress that will integrate experience of programs demonstrating excellence.
