Attention: ACHE Has New Education Requirements!

February 23, 2024

Updated FACHE Continuing Education Requirement for 2024

ACHE Fellows and those working on attaining their FACHE’s need to be aware of the new ACHE requirements for their annual renewals that took effect January1,2024. Read on for more details- if you have any questions, please reach out to CTAHE (administrator@ctahe.org) and we’ll plug you into getting answers.

What changed in 2024?

Starting Jan. 1, 2024, candidates who wish to advance to Fellow or recertify their credential must still earn a total of 36 continuing education credits, including a minimum of 12 ACHE In-Person Education credits, 12 Virtual Interactive Education credits, and up to 12 Qualifying Education credits:

ACHE Face-to-Face Education is now called ACHE In-Person Education (i.e., Congress, Clusters, in-person Executive Program, in-person Choice programs and approved ACHE Chapter Panel Discussions)

ACHE Virtual Interactive Education is added as a new delivery option (i.e., Virtual Face-to-Face Courses, Virtual Leadership Symposium, Virtual Health System Simulation, Virtual Executive Program, Virtual Board of Governors Review and Virtual ACHE Chapter Panel Discussions)

Qualified Education is now called Qualifying Education (i.e., ACHE digital self-study courses, webinars, live, or recorded on-demand). This also includes pre-approved provider organizations and education from other professional organizations related to healthcare management, administration and leadership.

For the purposes of advancement or recertification, while you must have at least 12 ACHE In-Person Education credits, additional ACHE In-Person Education credits may be used as a substitute for, or in lieu of, any ACHE Virtual Interactive Education or Qualifying Education requirements. And, ACHE Virtual Interactive Education may be used as a substitute, or in lieu of, any Qualifying Education requirement. Neither ACHE Virtual Interactive Education nor Qualifying Education credits can replace ACHE In-Person Education credits.

What’s the difference between ACHE Face-to-Face Education and ACHE In-Person Education?

They’re one and the same. ACHE Face-to-Face Education is being renamed ACHE In-Person Education under the revised credentialing policy. Offerings such as the Congress on Healthcare Leadership, ACHE Clusters, in-person Choice programs and approved in-person chapter panels are all considered In-Person Education events.

See chart below for the various scenarios for attaining credit and to learn what doesn’t qualify.
