Program Structure and Approach

The Healthcare Risk Management Certification Program combines the power of project-centered action learning with the convenience of an online education. This learning methodology was originally developed for the Ohio University MBA Without Boundaries program, a widely respected and award-winning approach to education.

The six-month program focuses on three areas:

  • Responding to Risks in the Healthcare System
  • Developing a Proactive Risk Management Program
  • Risk Financing

The program is built around two major action-learning projects, with the work on each lasting three months. The projects are team-based, allowing participants to learn how to collaborate effectively as members of a high performance team. The projects create a “need to know” that drives learning in the three areas of content. They also provide practice in the application of that content in realistic situations.

Our residency location on Polaris Parkway in Columbus, Ohio serves as the "nerve center" for the program. Participants convene three times during the six months. These three-day residencies provide face-to-face interaction among faculty and participants and provide opportunity for project introduction, skill building workshops, and project deliverables.

Between residencies, students collaborate online with other team members to develop the required deliverables and also take part in “scenario discussions” with program faculty on the OHIC/OUWB intranet.

“This project-based program immerses the learner in the experience. We are required to apply our work and life experience to our projects and vice-versa. I could never have learned this much."
