Continuing Educational Opportunities from Epic

Active Physician Builders who are Epic certified or accredited and meet the pre-determined criteria may be eligible for a course fee exemption for any further courses they wish to take. If you are interested in this opportunity, we encourage you to contact the program to learn more. 

Builder Scrums

While primarily intended to facilitate the allocation to and tracking of build tasks, regularly scheduled "scrums" also facilitate linking builders to other builders and analysts for mentoring, support and shared learning. 

All builders should consider attending and make this possible by registering for event communications:
