Speakers Wanted for 2020 Congress 

ACHE is currently accepting speaker proposals for next year’s Congress on Healthcare Leadership. The deadline is May 8.

The 2020 Congress will be held March 23–26, 2020, at the Hyatt Regency Chicago. Congress sessions focus on the experiences of healthcare leaders, enterprise decision makers or those implementing new technologies or processes. Proposals generally should be consistent with that focus and any new methodologies, techniques or tools used to support such application. Most importantly, proposals should explicitly describe applicable take-away tools and practical knowledge that will be part of the session.

Preference will be given to proposals that align with the identified topics of interest. While topics may appear broad, each has several subcategories from which to choose. Proposals will be reviewed based on their relevancy to current trends and the operational needs of our members.

Advance Your Career With a Unique Learning Opportunity

The Senior Executive and Executive Programs offer a trio of intensive sessions and dozens of ACHE Face-to-Face Education credits. Whether you are a mid-level manager or senior executive, these tailor-made sessions will help you advance to the next level of your career.

Both programs begin June 17 in Chicago, with sessions in San Diego (August) and Orlando, Fla. (October). Though delivered with different emphases, both programs focus on what matters most to leaders in this era of healthcare reform: personal leadership development, resiliency, patient safety, transformation and more. Nearly 50 (Executive Program) and more than 52 (Senior Executive Program) ACHE Face-to-Face Education credits can be earned.

To help ensure cohesiveness and a high level of engagement and interaction, enrollment is limited. Registration closes May 1.

For more information about content, faculty, education credits, tuition and other program details, view the online brochure or informational webinar.
