The benefits of CPHIMS certification are broad and far reaching. Certification is a process that is embraced in many industries, including healthcare IT. CPHIMS is recognized as the ‘gold standard’ in healthcare IT because it is developed by HIMSS, has a global focus, and is valued by clinicians and non-clinicians, management and staff positions, and technical and nontechnical individuals.

Certification, specifically CPHIMS certification, provides a means by which employers can evaluate potential new hires, analyze job performance, evaluate employees, market IT services, and motivate employees to enhance their skills and knowledge. Certification also provides employers with evidence that the certificate holders have demonstrated an established level of job-related knowledge, skills, and abilities and are competent practitioners of healthcare IT.
