Do you receive Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) funding to implement clinical quality management (CQM) programs? Are you striving to improve client care, health outcomes, and patient satisfaction?

|
The Center for Quality Improvement & Innovation (CQII) has developed a virtual QI training program, QI Learning Lab, with four independent courses: Beginner QI, Intermediate QI, Advanced QI, and Coaching QI. Each live, interactive, real-time, virtual course uses a case-based learning approach with real-world examples addressing gaps along the HIV care continuum. Labs consists of an orientation/pre-work session, followed by six 90-minute or 120-minute virtual learning sessions every two weeks (lasting three-months). Between sessions, participants complete practical assignments, while receiving continuous feedback from QI Learning Lab faculty members and peer participants. Finally, participants will showcase their QI learnings and project outcomes in a capstone session after completing the lab. |
