Class members must be nominated by GHA-member hospital CEOs. Nominations open on January 15 for the program class year that begins in July and ends in January the following year. Nominations are due by March 31. 

Although there is no limit on the number of nominees per member hospital, we prefer to accept no more than two nominees per hospital in each class.

A $2,500 tuition will be billed to the nominating CEO’s attention upon acceptance of the nominee on or around May 15.  Tuition covers program related such as speakers, meals, A/V expenses, materials, group-related (bus) transportation during site visits, etc. Tuition does not cover hotel lodging, individual transportation (mileage) to & from the programs.

Participants are highly encouraged to attend each scheduled program. Participants who, for unforeseen circumstances, miss more than one program are not eligible to graduate.
