The Canadian College of Health Leaders (CCHL) has awarded LEADS certification to the Master of Nursing – Leadership in Professional Nursing Practice program at Western University. The partnership agreement provides program participants with an opportunity to obtain their Certified Health Executive (CHE) designation while completing their studies.
Brenda Lammi, Vice President, Leadership and Professional Development at CCHL, said: “We are excited about this collaboration with Western University, 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 partnership is an extension of our commitment to creating transformative learning experiences for our students that help them meet their career goals and also shape the future of health and health care,” says Jayne Garland, Dean of Western’s Faculty of Health Sciences. “Leadership is an important aspect of tackling important health challenges and this collaboration helps our students rise to the challenge.”
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.
