QM and Digital Credentialing Along the Oregon Trail: A Convergence of Best Practices from a Two-Year Study and Cross-Institutional Collaboration

The University of Mississippi Medical Center is leveraging its first QM certification in 2016 to scale across the institution. Through a cross-campus partnership, research-based metrics and processes are being developed using Kirkpatrick's four stage training model to pair digital credentialing with learning milestones achieved by QM faculty cohorts. Utilizing both quantitative and qualitative methods, the two-year project will empower the team to relay to administrators effective strategies for implementing future endeavors involving scale and behavioral change.
