CPHQ Prep Virtual Class | Resource Guide

Pdf Summary

This NAHQ CPHQ Prep Virtual Class Resource Guide (2026) outlines an instructor-led, online exam preparation course for the Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality (CPHQ) certification. It welcomes participants, emphasizes the professional value of earning the CPHQ credential, and recommends pre-course steps: test Zoom/system compatibility, block time for mandatory sessions, and create a personalized learning action plan focused on strengths and knowledge gaps.<br /><br />The guide describes the course format (interactive lectures, quizzes, activities, and live Q&A) and notes that participants should already have functional baseline knowledge of CPHQ content areas. Course materials remain accessible for six months after enrollment. To earn a completion certificate (and applicable continuing education credit), learners must attend the required live sessions and submit a program evaluation; recordings may be used to make up limited missed sessions. Conflict-of-interest and continuing education accreditation/disclosure statements are included, along with NAHQ contact information for support.<br /><br />The curriculum follows the CPHQ content outline across seven modules: (1) Quality Leadership and Integration, (2) Quality Review and Accountability, (3) Regulatory and Accreditation, (4) Patient Safety, (5) Performance and Process Improvement (split into two parts), (6) Health Data Analytics (split into two parts), and (7) Population Health and Care Transitions. A two-week schedule shows ten approximately two-hour sessions, plus optional course introduction and instructor office hours.<br /><br />The resource guide also provides note-taking pages with key instructor topics per module, a statistics practice section (mean/median/mode/range) with an answer key, and an overview of common data visualization tools used in quality improvement (pie/bar charts, histograms, Pareto charts, scatter diagrams, run charts, control charts, and a chi-square example) and when they fit within PDSA. Finally, it lists recommended external resources from NAHQ and major quality/safety organizations (e.g., AHRQ, IHI, The Joint Commission, CMS) aligned to each module.
