Accreditation
Support your professional journey as a digital health leader with CHIME International accreditations. Developed by teams of digital health practitioners and advisers, CHIME accreditations give you the opportunity to test your skills and experience and win independent recognition for your digital health leadership.
All CHIME accreditations are developed by a team of industry advisers and remain under constant review for relevance and accuracy. Following enrollment, you will be given access to reading materials, a test examination and, when you are ready, the final online examination. This is a self-paced course to fit in around your job and your life.
The examination tests your experience and professional skills by asking you to respond to a number of scenarios with the right answer from a set of four possible responses.
