The Healthcare CIO Boot Camp may be one of the most important investments you can make toward your personal and professional success.

100% of the Boot Camp participants say they'd recommend this program to others. Here’s why:

"The Boot Camp was a very impressive experience with tremendous value not only to reinforce the things I'm already doing, but also to give me new skills, tactics, and ideas that will map directly to my own organization's environment."
Jake Hughes
Information Technology Director
St. Charles Medical Center
Bend, OR

"This was absolutely a fantastic program! The material was relevant, interaction with faculty and other students was beneficial, and the tools and techniques I learned are entirely applicable. My head is swimming with new ideas I want to apply as a result of what I learned at the Boot Camp."
Scott Dresen
CIO
Wayne State University Physician Group
Detroit, MI

"The Boot Camp addressed real world issues that I deal with as a CIO every day. I've picked up tips I will be able to deploy immediately."
John Kravitz
Senior Vice President and CIO
Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital

“Of all of the educational programs I have attended over the past 9 years, the Boot Camp was by far the most beneficial with respect to getting meaningful and practical content. The issues covered were right on target and I am using what I learned in my next presentation to our IT Steering Committee. The opportunity to spend time with some of the most prominent CIO leaders in the industry was truly rewarding.”
Gordon Lashmett
CIO
St. Anthony's Medical Center

"The Boot Camp was truly an outstanding program--my directors will be attending in the future. The assigned reading materials were outstanding as were the tools and techniques that we learned. The mix of the faculty and students was also very beneficial."
Mikki Clancy
VP and CIO
Premier Health Partners

“The CIO Boot Camp provided me with valuable information on the essential skills and critical success factors required to be a CIO. It provided insight as to how the CIO must function as the IT leader of an organization to meet business needs. The conference was very well organized and the faculty were great to work with and made the conference very enjoyable. I would highly recommend the CIO Boot Camp to anyone pursuing the CIO professional path or for anyone that directly reports to the CIO at their organization.”
Jeff Kennedy
Director of Technical Services
ProHealth Care, Inc.

“The Boot Camp is certainly one of the best programs I've ever attended. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is dealing with CIO issues, whether they are a CIO or not. It was truly unique (and rewarding) to be in a room full of people from around the country who are all dealing with the same decisions and problems that I deal with on a daily basis."
Larry Farrell
Assistant VP of IS
MedStar Health

"The Boot Camp program exceeded my expectations. I found it to be a valauble use of my time and honestly, this is the best seminar I have ever attended."
Jim Juliana
Director - Network & Telecomm Services
WellSpan Health

“The Boot Camp is by far one of the best uses of my organization's education dollars! I don't think I have thought this hard since graduate school. The pre-readings, faculty, and networking with colleagues was truly exceptional. Please carve time out of your future calendars to participate in this exceptional program. You will grow and stretch as a result!”
Gene Shaw
VP of IT/CIO
Yuma Regional Medical Center
