Video Summary

The session explains NACU’s CPHQ (Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality) certification, including eligibility, exam structure, preparation resources, testing logistics, results, and recertification. No specific requirements are needed to sit for the exam, though two years of healthcare quality experience is recommended. The exam is based on a current job analysis and covers seven domains, with most questions focused on application and analysis. Candidates should review the handbook, then register through their NACU account and schedule via PSI. Testing is available in person or online, with 140 questions and three hours to complete the exam. NACU offers optional prep tools, including a textbook, practice test, virtual class, and self-paced online course. After passing, candidates may use the CPHQ credential and must recertify every two years by earning 30 continuing education credits.
