  • 00:00:05
    I decided to pursue my masters in health administration because I was in a
  • 00:00:11
    position where I felt like I couldn't really continue on my career path
  • 00:00:15
    without taking that next step in my education. For a long time I had been
  • 00:00:22
    contemplating going back to school to further build my credentials in
  • 00:00:29
    administrative work within healthcare. I was looking for criteria in an MHA
  • 00:00:37
    program that could work into my professional schedule and personal
  • 00:00:41
    schedule. I was looking for a program that had a great reputation and a degree
  • 00:00:47
    from a school that was well recognized so Penn State had all the criteria I was
  • 00:00:53
    looking for so it was really an easy decision.
  • 00:00:58
    What Penn State does very nicely in World Campus is get you integrated into
  • 00:01:04
    that online environment. I think they do an excellent job at getting you
  • 00:01:08
    comfortable with the tools that you're going to use your communication methods.
  • 00:01:16
    One of the things that we talk with the students about as we interview them as
  • 00:01:20
    what's the structure of the curriculum and the sequence of the curriculum. So
  • 00:01:25
    there are 16 courses total in the curriculum across 28 months usually two
  • 00:01:31
    classes a semester sometimes three and by the end the students do a capstone
  • 00:01:37
    experience that integrates everything around an issue. The online program is
  • 00:01:42
    knit together with the residential MHA program that's been at Penn State for 25
  • 00:01:47
    years and is accredited by CAHME, the Commission on the Accreditation of
  • 00:01:52
    Healthcare Management Education. That credential matters in our field gives it
  • 00:01:58
    a cachet and a credibility that doesn't come from other institutions. Certainly I
  • 00:02:06
    had to make changes in my schedule in order to take on the responsibilities of
  • 00:02:11
    being an online graduate student. An online program allows you the
  • 00:02:17
    flexibility to maintain your full-time job and your personal life and still
  • 00:02:24
    accomplish the goal of getting a degree.
  • 00:02:29
    After graduation the the next steps are really how can I make this apply
  • 00:02:36
    and how can I really do something great for the patients that we work with every
  • 00:02:42
    day so for me that's that's what it's been for me is how can I translate all of this into a better patient
  • 00:02:47
    experience.
