Leadership training and education for tomorrow's physician leaders
For Physicians
From self-paced and facilitated online courses to live education, our catalog offers a wide array of courses and formats to fit your needs.
Self-paced online courses offer the flexibility to learn on your time anywhere, anytime. These courses motivate learners through content delivered by industry experts and real-world examples. Facilitated online courses encourage collaboration with classmates and offer the unique opportunity for learners to gain individual feedback from faculty members in an online environment. Live course offerings provide an opportunity for physicians looking to network and learn in-person.
For physicians looking to take the next step on their leadership path, we also offer credentialing programs to support you in your journey. Since 1997, the Certified Physician Executive (CPE) credential has distinguished physicians as influential leaders in the field. The CPE designation endorses your ability to lead large groups, manage budgets, address HR challenges, and apply strategic business insights.
