Certified Healthcare Quality & Project Management Professional

This integrated program helps healthcare professionals lead process improvement and quality projects using a structured project management approach. While CPHQ provides expertise in patient safety, performance measurement, and quality improvement, PMP equips learners to manage these initiatives efficiently — with scope control, timeline planning, risk assessment, and stakeholder alignment. By combining both, you’ll gain the skill to move from quality concept to measurable project outcomes.

Yes. The program teaches how to translate healthcare improvement ideas into formalized projects using PMBOK-aligned frameworks. You’ll learn to define project charters for clinical audits, build work breakdown structures for process redesigns, and manage cross-functional teams for compliance projects. This structured approach ensures every quality improvement effort is executed within timelines, budgets, and strategic goals.

Participants will learn to connect healthcare KPIs such as infection control, patient satisfaction, and turnaround times into project monitoring dashboards. The program demonstrates how to visualize and track project metrics using structured templates, Excel, and optional BI tools. You’ll be able to evaluate project progress based on both operational and clinical performance outcomes — bridging quality assurance with project performance analytics.

Yes. The training is built around real-world case studies drawn from hospital and clinical environments. You’ll work on scenarios such as implementing a new infection prevention process, redesigning patient flow, or managing an accreditation readiness project. Each case highlights how CPHQ and PMP principles intersect to deliver measurable results in cost, efficiency, and quality indicators.

The program trains you to use data analytics to support project decisions. You’ll learn how to interpret performance metrics, assess improvement impact, and use evidence from quality reports to guide project execution. Combining CPHQ’s analytical mindset with PMP’s structured reporting ensures every project recommendation is data-backed, measurable, and justifiable at the leadership level.

Risk management is taught from both the project perspective and healthcare quality viewpoint. You’ll learn how to identify, assess, and mitigate operational risks such as clinical errors, process delays, or compliance gaps. By applying PMP’s risk management framework, you’ll gain tools to document and track risks systematically, while your CPHQ knowledge helps evaluate their impact on patient safety and quality outcomes.

Yes. The program includes communication planning as part of PMP’s stakeholder management process. You’ll practice developing executive-level project summaries, performance scorecards, and visual reports that present quality improvement outcomes clearly and persuasively. These communication skills are essential for gaining management buy-in and ensuring that results translate into organizational change.

No, prior certification is not mandatory. The program is designed for healthcare professionals who have experience in operations, administration, or quality improvement but want to add project leadership to their skillset. Both CPHQ and PMP concepts are introduced from a practical standpoint, ensuring that learners from non-technical or clinical roles can grasp and apply them effectively.
