Institutions of higher learning worldwide use the IHI Open School to expose students to foundational concepts and develop critical knowledge in patient safety and quality improvement. Core topics covered in the Open School courses are relevant to physicians, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, allied health professionals, public health students, and community health workers. Organizations around the world have used the Basic Certificate, paired with facilitated classroom and practical experiences, to prepare the health and health care leaders of tomorrow.
The
Basic Certificate in Quality and Safety is a 13-course curriculum that
provides an introduction to patient safety, quality improvement, population
health, health care leadership, and person- and family-centered care. Completion of all 13 courses earns users 17.5 Continuing Education (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.
