Paid and tuition-sponsored Advanced Career Training (ACT) programs
Advanced Career Training (ACT) programs provide current employees with opportunities to obtain the education and training required to advance their healthcare career. Programs offer advancement into roles that are important to the delivery of the highest quality care for our patients. Employee support may include paid learning time and/or tuition resources such as tuition reimbursement, scholarship, or sponsorship to attain a degree or credential with our academic partners.
ACT participants are hired into a trainee role in a hosting department while they complete their educational requirements and clinical training. Upon successful completion of their ACT program, participants are eligible to advance with their new degree or credential.
