The CMIP program cultivates and validates the knowledge required to coordinate and align efforts across the care team to implement infection prevention strategies and improve outcomes. It is the only certificate program that translates the requisite knowledge of an Infection Preventionist into real-word day-to-day environment of care operations.
This comprehensive program explores the most critical topics in infection prevention, including microbiology and epidemiology; patient and health care worker safety; surveillance, risk assessment and outbreaks; antimicrobial stewardship; evidence-based cleaning practices and environmental monitoring; and prevention infection during construction and emergencies.
The CMIP program is delivered in three distinct phases designed to cultivate a deep understanding of infection prevention practice.• Phase 1: Online course pre-work• Phase 2: In-person session• Phase 3: Online program work and capstone project
