When Choosing a Consultant…
To better serve our programs, and based on past inquiries, CAHME has curated a list of experienced site visitors who offer independent consultative accreditation services. CAHME DOES NOT REQUIRE OR RECOMMEND PROGRAMS HIRE CONSULTANTS. This page is provided as a resource as CAHME has learned that programs are searching for consultants and do not know where to turn. CAHME strongly recommends that if selecting a consultant outside of this list, you check with CAHME Chief Accreditation Officer Operations, Eric Brichto, at ebrichto@cahme.org.
CAHME provides many resources to help programs prepare for accreditation, including:
-
- CAHME Mentorship Circle
- CAHME’s Core Learning Center, which includes access to Enhanced Benchmarking to view how other programs have proceeded through the accreditation process
- Candidacy Process
- Periodic group meetings with CAHME staff during accreditation and reaccreditation
- Benchmarking through the Annual Report process
