Ever wondered what the best steps are after you receive the Executive Analysis (EA) for the program’s self-study report? After the initial shock that your self-study report wasn’t as perfect as you thought it’s time to look at the EA as a tool that can make the site visit go from stressful to just another visit by friends. The CoAEMSP returns the EA to the program as a tool to allow the program time to correct areas of concern identified in the self-study report, in order to improve the overall outcome of the accreditation process.

Watch this informative webinar that addresses the best ways to put the Executive Analysis to work for you. We look at how the EA is developed and talk about what we, the Reader, see in the self-study report. We will look at the more common areas of concern; and just maybe we’ll take some of the blame for simply not understanding your answers to the questions we asked. In the end, we hope you will see the EA as a tool to improve the ease of your site visit and make your journey through the accreditation process as smooth as possible.

Often the hardest part of any project is organizing a plan to get started. The action plan the CoAEMSP has developed breaks the activities into phases and identifies the activity and associated resources, such as the location on the CoAEMSP website that will provide the necessary information. We will share best practices for developing and implementing an action plan for your program’s next comprehensive review, from writing the self-study report through to responding to the site visit findings.

One of the more important requirements of accreditation is a program’s ability to track and document student progress throughout the program. This session will reveal pitfalls that have been discovered during the accreditation process and is designed to promote discussion on how to address the identified concerns and identify solutions that could be implemented by programs to improve their tracking.

Programs are required to evaluate the appropriateness and effectiveness of their resources. This session will identify resources an EMS program must assess and tools to support the program’s assessment. We will dive deeper into what it means to assess resources, what tools to use, and how often a program should assess its resources. This webinar is targeted for EMS educators of all levels.
