“The CHIME Healthcare CIO Boot Camp is a one-of-a-kind experience. I have attended other “seminars” but never something this immersive or detailed. The faculty are first-rate professionals in the industry, representing great diversity of backgrounds. Faculty are genuinely interested and engaged in the growth of each member of the cohort and have taken the time to follow up once the class ended. Finally, the cohort experience is fantastic. In this cohort, I met amazing current and future executives. I’m excited to watch our careers grow and reconnect at future CHIME events. Thank you to CHIME for a career-changing boot camp!”
