Furthering Her Education

Two years into her new job, Cyndi decided the time was right to return
to college. “I knew there was so much more to health informatics and I’m
a person who loves learning,” she says. When IASIS’s CEO sent out an
email that one of its educational partners, American Sentinel University,
was offering five full-ride scholarships for its Master of Health Care
Informatics (MHCI), Cyndi jumped at the chance to apply. To her surprise,
she was awarded one of the scholarships. “It was so exciting. I think
what made me stand out is that I’ve been in this field for 25 years and I’m
looking toward the future of health care and my place in it. I really love my
job, and I’m an independent, self-motivated person.”
Focused on the Health Care of Tomorrow

Cyndi started the MHCI program in March 2013 and immediately found
the curriculum applicable to her job. “I think it is a very up-to-date, very
rigorous program,” she says. And though she has deep experience in
the field, Cyndi admits that her education will make her a more valuable
employee moving forward. “Health care changes by the week. To further
my career, more education is important. American Sentinel has done an
excellent job of keeping this program current with what’s happening in
health care today. I’m enjoying the program more than I ever anticipated.”
