What are Healthcare Experience Foundation certificate programs?

Healthcare Experience Foundation was founded to serve one purpose: to bring together the industry’s best minds—thought leaders, change agents and providers—to share their knowledge, expertise and experiences with healthcare organizations, leaders and teams endeavoring to transform their healthcare delivery and dramatically improve healthcare outcomes.


As part of this purpose, we seek to bring this knowledge to the healthcare industry through a series of actionable programs that equip leaders with the skills needed to affect real change in their workplace and across the industry. Our programs can be attended as standalone courses, or taken as a series.
