Aligned with the needs of healthcare employers, the MHA鈥檚 live, online peer collaboration enhances learning and professional development to help students take on significant challenges faced by healthcare professionals today.

鈥淥ur students benefit from bringing all of their healthcare experience to the program,鈥� says MHA faculty member Steve Bowman. 鈥淪tudents with clinical backgrounds learn from students with management backgrounds, and vice versa. This inter-professional education from diverse backgrounds creates a rich, vibrant atmosphere in which to learn.鈥�

A distinct feature of the program is the integration of Jesuit values consistent with Boston College's mission to educate leaders who will make a difference in the world鈥攆rom concern for the poor and marginalized to responsible action on moral and ethical issues. In addition, the competency-based program allows students to leverage what they have already learned on the job and focus on the skills and knowledge that they need to develop the most.

鈥淓mployers are demanding competent managers and leaders who have the skills and training to help their organizations succeed,鈥� says Bowman. 鈥淥ur students report that having MHA program competencies aligned with industry expectations is incredibly valuable and is already helping them in their current positions and in their future career plans.鈥�

Students also appreciate the flexibility that comes with an online program, which allows working professionals to find balance between their work, family, and educational commitments.

鈥淎s a full-time administrator at a Catholic healthcare system and parent of three children, I felt the Boston College program was set up in a manner that would both fulfill my academic expectations and logistical needs,鈥� says Deixler.

鈥淭he online medium allows me to bring the Boston College experience wherever I go and complete my education around my busy workload, both in my career and at home with my young family,鈥� adds Hayes.

For some, the online approach allows as much, if not more, learning and participation than a traditional classroom setting.

鈥淚 am able to visually see my instructor and classmates and I鈥檓 able to use either the computer or phone as audio,鈥� says Cyr. 鈥淚n a traditional classroom, a lot of my thoughts were overpowered by the professor鈥檚 lecture or by other students, but in the online classroom, with a small class size and a chat box to add questions or comments, my voice is heard.鈥�
