Business Wire
Tech Data Corporation (Nasdaq: TECD) today introduced through
its Technology Solutions business, formerly a division of Avnet, an
innovative, new education and training component of Technology
Solutions’ HealthPath™ University and HealthPath Internship
programs. Partners participating in these programs can gain the
necessary skills and knowledge to apply for CPHIMS (Certified
Professional in Healthcare Information and Management Systems)
certification. CPHIMS is a well-regarded professional certification
program for experienced healthcare information and management
systems professionals.
CPHIMS certification demonstrates that a professional has met a
standard of proficiency and competence in healthcare information
and management systems, and has reached an important milestone in
their career development. Many healthcare organizations require
that technical and IT job applicants have CPHIMS certification, and
encourage current employees to obtain it.
“A CPHIMS certification allows our partners to demonstrate
mastery of the complex systems that healthcare facilities require
to support the growing demands on their technical infrastructure,
and offers their customers additional confidence in their abilities
to provide them with the best possible solutions to support these
needs,” said Jim Bindon, director, vertical and technology markets
at Technology Solutions, Americas. “Our unique HealthPath
University and Internship programs are the perfect environments to
further develop the knowledge and experience necessary to obtain
this important distinction.”
Technology Solutions partner Logicalis is an international IT
solutions and managed services provider that has had several of its
consultants participate in the HealthPath Internship and obtain
their CPHIMS certification.
“Logicalis has seen genuine value from our team members who have
earned the CPHIMS certification by completing the Technology
Solutions’ HealthPath Internship,” said Vince DeLuca, CEO,
Logicalis. “The skills, tools, and knowledge gained through this
intense learning experience help us in our commitment to delivering
the highest levels of service and real-world solutions that are
demanded by our healthcare partners.”
A wide range of professionals hold the CPHIMS certification:
- Over 30 percent of CPHIMS certification
holders are chief information officers (CIOs) or vice
presidents/directors in the areas of information systems and
technology.
- More than half of CPHIMS certification
holders work in hospitals and academic medical centers, and
- Nearly one out of 10 CPHIMS
certification holders is affiliated with the military or the
federal government.
- Outside of the U.S., Canada, Asia and
the Middle East are the fastest-growing areas for CPHIMS
certification.
Technology Solutions is proud to partner with HonorHealth, a
leading Arizona-based healthcare system, to conduct the HealthPath
Internships at HonorHealth’s medical center facilities in
Scottsdale, Ariz. Technology Solutions, formerly a division of
Avnet, was awarded a spot on the 2016 IDC Health Insights
HealthTech Rankings Enterprise Top 25 listing. For more information
