Testimonial

As a physician assistant, I had limited exposure to administrative decisions that defined how I practiced. Because of this, I pursued the Clinical Healthcare Management Certificate to gain more knowledge of the business aspects of medicine. The courses I took not only pushed me to learn disciplines I had not been exposed to, such as accounting and finance, but also allowed me to develop a well-rounded view of patient care, one that now includes an administrative mindset.
