Healthcare Micro-Credential

Healthcare is booming and the demand for competent PMs has never been higher. I feel there should be courses/micro credentialing to teach how to navigate projects, particularly medical device installation, in the unique healthcare space. Its not quite construction and not quite Agile. Any thoughts?

David -

I know that HIMSS does have a healthy project management cohort so that might be something available through them.

PMI is likely to eventually get there - they started with construction engineering but are likely to add additional vertical micro-credentials in time.

I agree with Kiron. If I am not mistaken, I think PMI are working on a micro-credential related to Healthcare but not 100% sure.

As a follow-up to my original response, here's a link to one of the certifications on the HIMSS website which might be a good fit: https://www.himss.org/resources-certification/cpdhts

I actually agree and hope to see more in the future. In the meantime, I work in Clinical Research and we’ve partnered with Florence Healthcare who launched the below FREE micro certifications. These should not take the place of PMI trainings or courses but are a good value add.
