​​On a global scale, the challenges facing health and health care can seem daunting. But every day, people all over the world are making a difference​ on a local level. The Moving Quality Improvement from Theory to Action online course provides the tools and skills needed to make positive change through improvement projects.

Do you have a stalled improvement project you want to push forward? Looking to develop a formal process and engage a team to support an improvement idea? Identified a health disparity and want to close it? Tasked by your supervisor or leader to solve a problem? If you've identified an opportunity for ​​improvement, this course will help you put your ideas in​t​o practice​.​​

Join this fast-paced experience to learn how to apply the right tools to your quality improvement efforts with the guidance of our expert faculty. Online lessons will teach the process of improvement and when to use specific improvement tools, assignments will direct you to apply those tools to an ongoing project, and live calls will provide additional examples, case studies, and coaching to drive your improvement project towards results that matter. Calls also provide opportunities to network with and learn from your peers.

This active learning opportunity will extend beyond the virtual experience. As you gain experience with new improvement tools and skills, you will manage your improvement project, apply your learning, and run your own tests of change, from start to sustainability.
