25 novembre 2020

L’accord de partenariat est un moyen de promouvoir l’excellence dans le domaine du leadership en santé et donne à l’école de politiques publiques l’occasion d’intégrer le Cadre LEADS dans son curriculum.

Regina/Ottawa – Le Collège canadien des leaders en santé (CCLS) a accordé la certification LEADS à la Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy (JSGS), une école provinciale commune de l’Université de Regina et de l’Université de la Saskatchewan, pour son programme en ligne de maîtrise en gestion des services de santé (M.G.S.S.) et son tout nouveau programme Excellence in Healthcare Leadership (EHL) pour cadres. L’accord de partenariat donne aux étudiants des programmes M.G.S.S. et EHL la possibilité d’obtenir leur titre de Certified Health Executive/Leader certifié en santé (CHE/LCS) tout en terminant leurs études.

Brenda Lammi, Vice President, Leadership and Professional Development at CCHL, said: “We are excited about this collaboration with the Johnson Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, who show their commitment to health leadership by committing to incorporating the LEADS framework into their curriculum and having the CHE as a preferred designation for their students.”

The CHE designation is the only leadership designation in Canada for all health leaders and is essential for career advancement. Other benefits of the CHE designation include support for lifelong learning in health services leadership, assistance with career advancement, and peer recognition.

This collaboration will also allow both organizations to better address the constantly evolving needs of health leaders and align themselves with the LEADS in a Caring Environment framework—that includes leading self, engaging others, achieving results, developing coalitions, and systems transformation. 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.

Doug Moen, Director, Executive Education at JSGS and former Executive Director of the school, said: “Now, more than ever, the provision of health care has become increasingly complex, as health leaders are dealing with additional stress on the system due to the pandemic, aging and more diverse populations, more prevalent chronic conditions, and greater demand for patient-oriented care. Ensuring our students follow LEADS-based learning and best practices while working towards their CHE designation and completion of their JSGS program is vitally important for their careers and for citizens across Canada.”
