Value of ACHE

When you choose to become an ACHE member, you’ll join an extraordinary community of healthcare leaders with exclusive access to an array of programs, activities and resources. We are committed to enriching our members, increasing your capabilities and equipping you to become a force in the transformation of healthcare.

 

Fellowship Advancement

If you’re visiting this section, it’s because you see the value of attaining the prestigious FACHE credential. Similar to physicians who become board-certified in their area of specialty, healthcare administrators also devote a great deal of time and effort to refining their knowledge and experience in today’s complex healthcare environment. Advancing within ACHE by earning the FACHE credential is one way to demonstrate to the healthcare community that you are committed to our field of endeavor and that you have the right mix of experience, continuing education, professional/civic involvement - as well as the respect of healthcare colleagues who provide references - to represent our profession in this changing arena.

Additional resources for becoming a Fellow include;

  • - ACHE-sponsored Webinars
  • - Chapter-sponsored informational and test review sessions
  • - Your ACHE-SFL Board of Directors is happy to answer any additional questions, so reach out!
