Meanwhile, an all-business school in Michigan is trying to spread the word about their online management degrees. The college is hosting a "webinar" on November 18 for professionals who are interested in earning an MBA or master of management (MM) with a specialization in Health Services Administration. The 45-minute web session will provide information about the course content and admission requirements. Sheila Ronis, who is the current chair of the Vision Working Group of the Project on National Security Reform in Washington, DC, is scheduled to participate in the webinar. Ronis, who is also director the MBA and MM programs, said that there will be a need for qualified health service administrators as the population continues to age and the healthcare industry expands. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the number of employment opportunities for medial and health service managers is expected to grow by 16 percent over the next eight years. The bureau reports that managers will be required to recruit workers, implement new technology and ensure the security of computerized patient records. Individuals who have a master's degree in health services administration may start as department managers or as supervisory staff, according to the BLS. Candidates who have graduate school experience are also likely to be hired by medical group practices, mental health facilities, consulting firms and clinics. |
