Through this agreement, participants in the Master of Nursing – Health Systems Leadership and Administration (MN-HSLA) will work towards obtaining their Certified Health Executive (CHE) designation, the only certification program for Canadian health leaders. This program offers individual leaders several benefits including support for lifelong learning in health services leadership; assistance with career advancement; peer recognition and serves as an essential career designation.

“CCHL is thrilled to partner with Bloomberg’s Master of Nursing Program to align the requirements of the Certified Health Executive (CHE) credential with the curriculum of the program.  This is an exciting new type of partnership for us that will contribute to the expansion and development of health leaders and will connect them with health leaders across Canada, speaking the common leadership language of LEADS in a Caring Environment,” says Brenda Lammi, Vice-President of Professional and Leadership Development at CCHL.

“Bloomberg Nursing has a legacy of educating and developing nurse leaders who respond to the ever-changing landscape of healthcare in Canada. Now more than ever, the healthcare sector needs effective, dynamic leadership who will participate in the transformation of our healthcare system. Our continued collaboration with CCHL strengthens our ability to meet the ongoing need for the development of health leaders,” says Linda Johnston, Dean and Professor at Bloomberg Nursing.

This collaboration will also allow for both organizations to better address the constantly evolving needs of health leaders and align themselves with the LEADS in a Caring Environment framework. This framework is a foundation for Canadian health leadership development and defines the knowledge, skills and attitudes a leader must have to positively contribute to the Canadian health care system.
