I would encourage anyone interested in furthering their HIT career to obtain this certification which includes a broad spectrum of clinical information, technology, and current events."

"Learn at your own pace, ask questions anytime, and get a quick reply. It's perfect for the working individual!"

"The ASHIM® Health IT program was not what I expected. I thought it would be a lot of computer jargon I wouldn't understand… that was not the case! The textbooks for the course were very easy to understand and follow. This course was very informative; everything was explained in detail and if you had a question, your coaches were a mouse click away! Working full time I didn't think that I would be able to complete the course in the time allowed but [I found] with the lesson plan – that was not the case. I was able to work at my own pace and not be pressured. I would definitely recommend this online course to anyone."
– Dorothy A., Hamilton, OH

"I have really liked the program thus far. The IT portion is the hardest for me as my background is in medical office management. I'm looking forward to finishing and taking the test for my certification. I'd recommend this course to anyone. I've liked going at my own pace, too."
– Debra H., Round Rock, TX

Having successfully completed the ASHIM® Health IT Program, I am much more knowledgeable of all HIT related processes and feel much better positioned to explore more challenging opportunities."
– John W., West Mclean, VA

"I have had a few times when I felt a bit overwhelmed with using different books and handouts, but it all comes together every time. If I haven't quite grasped something it will always be made clear in another book or handout."
– Nancy S., Hermitage, PA

"I think the program is well designed and covers all necessary material. I appreciate that it takes into consideration our current knowledge and allows us to 'fast track.' I love that the unit tests are scored electronically and immediately. We know where we are and can keep track. I was afraid I would feel bogged down but I don't."
– Mary M., Loudonville, NY

"I believe that the material is relevant to today's clinical environment and is a valuable asset to those wishing to pursue CHISP® certification."
