Welcome to
the online home of the Commission on Accreditation Healthcare
Management Education (CAHME) an interdisciplinary group
of educational, professional, clinical, and commercial
organizations devoted to accountability and quality improvement
in the education of healthcare management and administration
professionals.
CAHME serves the public good through
promoting, evaluating, and improving the quality of
graduate healthcare management education in the United
States and Canada. Through our partnership between
academe and the field of practice, CAHME serves universities
and programs in a voluntary peer review process as
a means to continuously improve graduate education.
In doing so, CAHME accreditation becomes the benchmark
by which students and employers determine the integrity
of healthcare management education and establishes
the standard of measurement for the world community.
This commitment has been made by leading
professional associations and colleges that serve as
sponsoring organizations for CAHME. Students entering
CAHME accredited programs are assured of appropriate
content, high standards of quality, and membership in
a network of professional colleagues that transcends
boundaries of universities and professional associations
and colleges.
CAHME is proud to be officially recognized
by both the Department
of Education and the Council
for Higher Education Accreditation. CAHME is also
a member of the Association
of Specialized and Professional Accreditors (ASPA)
and adheres to the ASPA Code
of Good Practice.
