BS in Healthcare Administration is OPEN!

Basically, I think people who want to manage a health/hospital unit or even the entire hospital system, should start from some health related profession and move up the ranks... Essentially, I usually mention the balanced mix/match of cert, degree, experience, before you apply for any management position, as those hiring are looking for a well rounded individual (yes, even if you're overweight like me, your rounded tummy will get you somewhere). Similarly, I believe it's for most professions, from traditional trades to anything, they want you to know your stuff before you can actually go into management...

I had been anticipating this degree plan for a while now. I was a student before at WGU for the B.S. Healthcare Admin - I wonder if any of the courses will transfer in towards it. I might have to reach out and check. I think I completed 4 of 10 at WGU (though I needed to do some other courses there). I'd like to see what UMPI would take here.
