Healthcare Leadership Program

Developing compassionate leaders equipped with the skills to lead, advocate, and innovate, ensuring that Armenia's healthcare system is both equitable and sustainable for future generations.

Training a New Generation of Healthcare Leaders

At HFA, we believe that if we cultivate a new generation of wellness-driven healthcare leaders who are deeply connected to their communities and adept in change management, then we will achieve system-wide healthcare transformation in Armenia because they will foster a culture of proactive health management across the nation.

The  Program

The program trains and deploys primary care physicians working in Armenia, who are ready to serve the rural communities as leaders.

The HFA model for healthcare leadership training and development is based on four core pillars

Doctor-leaders develop leadership skills to manage medical institutions, collaborate with non-governmental organizations, and participate in the development and implementation of regional and state healthcare strategies.

Doctor-leaders collaborate with community members to identify their healthcare perceptions, cultural habits, and unique needs in order to design healthcare initiatives that align with the community's values and goals.

Doctor-leaders utilize quality improvement tools and evidence-based approaches to enhance the quality of service delivery in their medical institutions and developing the leadership capacities necessary to drive sustainable and significant changes within their communities.

Doctor-leaders develop skills in utilizing professional literature, enhancing professional competencies, and applying evidence-based medicine (with the support of our strategic partner, HENAR Foundation).

Become a Doctor-leader

The program launches with a month-long Healthcare Academy, based on an introductory curriculum covering the four pillars mentioned above. This is an integral part of the program, and participation is mandatory.The Academy will take place in person from November 12–16 and December 3–6, and online from November 16–30.

Within the framework of the two-year program, Doctor-leaders will implement two projects and undergo specialized training. Upon completing the program, participants will become alumni and join our alumni community.
