Many organizations leverage the IHI Open School to build foundational capability in safety and quality improvement among staff at all levels and build the health care leaders of tomorrow.
Hospitals and health systems around the world use the Open School to:
- Develop the capability of health care staff in the areas of safety, quality improvement, equity, and person-centered care
- Develop a common language within their organizations about system improvement and quality improvement methods
- Guide clinicians to deeply consider what matters to patients and populations, and how to achieve more equitable care
Build Your Staff While Helping Them Get Their CE Credits
Used as a stand-alone resource or as part of a larger initiative to build common capacity and language, the Open School provides an opportunity to train staff and help them achieve their required Continuing Education (CE) credits. The Basic Certificate in Quality and Safety curriculum (13 courses) include 17.5 CE credits and the Safety and Quality Improvement Micro-Credential*.
When we interview health care leaders of today, many describe the Open School as a catalyst for their interest in patient safety and quality improvement.
Build Your Residents and Fellows
For ACGME organizations, the Open School offers an out-of-the-box solution to meeting the criteria for practice-based learning.
