Edge-U-Cate
Inexperienced Credentialers Can Spell Disaster
Edge-U-Cate announces the first-ever Credentialing School, offering two distinct 5-day courses.
The Basics – This “just-in-time” training of the basic components of hospital credentialing and privileging is designed for those individuals with little to no previous training or experience (or who have been functioning with minimal training). This course is offered approximately every 90 days, so no matter when an entry-level credentialer is hired, there is “just-in-time” training available.
Beyond The Basics – Created for experienced individuals with basic knowledge of credentialing and medical staff issues, this course is for those credentialing and medical services management professionals who are ready for more in-depth training and problem solving alternatives, incorporating case studies and emphasizing critical thinking skills.
