London, ON / Ottawa, ON – The Canadian College of Health Leaders (CCHL) has awarded the LEADS certification to the London Health Sciences Centre’s Insight to Action (I2A) LEADerS Program and signed a new strategic alliance to increase the leadership capabilities of health care managers, a first for a hospital in Ontario.
Through this agreement, participants in the Insight to Action (I2A) LEADerS Program at London Health Sciences Centre will gain advanced standing for all the Certified Health Executive (CHE) designation’s requirements. The CHE designation is the only certification program for all Canadian health leaders. This program offers individual leaders several benefits including support for lifelong learning in health services leadership; assistance with career advancement; peer recognition and serves as an essential career designation.
This collaboration will also allow for both organizations to better address the constantly evolving needs of health leaders and align themselves with the LEADS in a Caring Environment framework. 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.
Brenda Lammi, Vice President, Professional and Leadership Development at the CCHL, says: “We are excited about this collaboration with London Health Sciences Centre, who show their commitment to health leadership by committing to incorporate the LEADS framework into their programming and having the CHE as a preferred designation for their employees.”
Murray Doucette, Chief Human Resources Officer & Vice President, People & Culture at London Health Sciences Centre, says: “The collaboration with CCHL to create this internal program that helps our leaders achieve excellence is an exciting step forward in London Health Sciences Centre’s commitment to continuously improve opportunities for our people, and patient care with exceptional leadership.”
