The Health Information and EHR Systems Analyst program (HIER) prepares students to manage healthcare data and electronic health record (EHR) systems with confidence.
Learners receive hands-on training in EPIC, SQL, Tableau, and Crystal Reports, building core competencies in clinical data management, system implementation, and reporting.
The program also introduces participants to technical workflows aligned with the EHR Support Analyst (ESA) role, including Epic optimization, system troubleshooting, and internal user support.
This expanded focus equips learners to contribute to healthcare IT environments through both foundational and system-facing responsibilities, ensuring data accuracy, security, and compliance.
This program prepares students for the HIMSS CAHIMS certification, providing a strong pathway into health information technology and EHR specialist roles across healthcare settings.
Participation in both components require a commitment of 40 hours per week during standard business hours.
