Board Certification in Medical Management
For the physician executive, board certification in medical management can be the key to success in today's competitive health care environment. CPE certification can be a valuable credential that can help you advance your career, enhance your credibility, and attain the satisfaction of reaching a major achievement.

Achieving CPE Status
Certification is awarded based on a candidate's stature as a physician, educational achievements, medical management experience and completion of a four-day skill building Tutorial administered by the CCMM.

At the Tutorial, you will practice management techniques in front of a video camera and you are evaluated on your ability to:

  • make a convincing presentation describing your skills and accomplishments to a panel of health care leaders. You will be evaluated equally on your content and your public speaking skills.
  • give feedback in your cohort group.
  • complete written ‘in-basket’ exercises, which are cases developed around the nine core courses.

Why CPE?
CPE is the certification of choice. The American College of Physician Executives is promoting the CPE certification to CEO's and physician recruiters.

CPE certification indicates that you have reached a level of excellence within the medical management profession, with management education, knowledge and demonstrated skills, to effectively lead an organization.

The Certifying Commission in Medical Management
CCMM is the national certifying body for physicians specializing in medical management. It is a not-for-profit corporation chartered by the American College of Physician Executives with the mission of establishing and maintaining the highest standards for certification of physician executives.
