Did you know? The original School of Public Health at University of Louisville was open from 1919-1923, making it one of the nation’s first public health schools.

We are proud to announce the launch of our newest online program, the Graduate Certificate in Healthcare Financial Management!  

This 100% online, asynchronous certificate is designed for individuals working in or looking to pursue positions in the financial healthcare sector by expanding their financial and administrative background, which will better prepare these individuals for leadership-level career growth.   

After completing this certificate, students will have a solid foundation in key areas such as hospital finances, budgeting, budget management, financial decision-making, and more as it relates to hospital, insurance and general healthcare settings. These skills are applicable and scalable to institutions as small as private practices or as large a healthcare network as UofL Health. Students will similarly be better prepared for leadership and administrative roles within their organizations.   

All that hard work will pay off too—literally. Substantial career growth is expected for the healthcare sector over the next decade, with growth projected to occur much faster than average for all occupations (bls.gov). Due to both employment growth and the need to replace people who leave these positions, about 1.8 million job openings are projected each year (bls.gov). While part of this growth refers to clinicians and medical personnel needed to fill these roles, a large percentage of that growth includes the administrative roles needed to accommodate and service the business needs of these growing institutions.   

The best part? This graduate certificate can be completed 100% online from the comfort of home, without the time-commitment of a full graduate program.  

So don’t wait! Click the link here and prepare to take your career in finances to the next level in the ever-growing healthcare space!
