A Word from our Academic Director

‘Care must be organised in an integrated way. This means that political decision-makers, hospital managers, administrators, and especially healthcare professionals, need to work together. Solving issues and improving healthcare requires a multi-perspective approach. If we want to make use of each other's expertise, we need to speak each other's language and understand each other's perspectives. The training healthcare professionals receive is often theory based. Management topics are not part of the standard curriculum. This is why we developed a compact program, the Clinical Business Administration program, which covers all facets of healthcare organization and delivery. It's a kind of mini MBA for healthcare professionals.’ Prof. Dr. Nardo van der Meer
