Healthcare IT Management


Program Director
Carol Brown

Expectations have never been higher for knowledgeable leaders to leverage healthcare information technology (HIT) for more effective healthcare delivery. HIT spending by hospitals and physician practices is expected to dramatically rise in the next few years due to federal government incentives for electronic health record system purchases. The demand is growing for both IT and healthcare professionals who understand how to develop, acquire, and effectively implement new HIT within in-patient, ambulatory, and home-health settings. Recent forecasts are for a 40% increase in demand for HIT professionals in U.S. Hospitals alone.

Program Audience

This unique 4-course certificate program is designed for both healthcare professionals (with little or no prior IT management experience) and IT professionals (with or without prior experience in the healthcare industry).
