The Certified Professional in Healthcare Risk Management designation is a widely respected credential that verifies a broad-based knowledge of healthcare risk management.
ASHRM has developed this webinar series, consisting of six sessions plus an orientation, to help those who are planning to take the CPHRM examination.
While the CPHRM Exam Prep webinar series is not designed to teach foundational concepts, it can help participants focus on content areas that may require a more in-depth review, as well as identify familiar content areas for which a more cursory review will suffice.
The agenda corresponds to the six major content areas of the CPHRM Exam detailed in the CPHRM Candidate Handbook and Application (PDF). Each session lasts 90 minutes and is led by a trained, CPHRM-credentialed program facilitator. The teaching method is primarily didactic lecture with various case examples throughout.
While this course cannot assure passage of the CPHRM exam, it can be effective in your preparation for the exam.
Healthcare risk management professionals who fulfill requirements for education/healthcare experience and risk management experience, as stipulated by the AHA Certification Center. For more information on eligibility requirements, please review the AHA CPHRM Candidate Handbook and Application (PDF).
