Testimonials

“You are more likely to be successful in QI with the foundations taught in the EQUIP program. You will also meet wonderful people and mentors who will share your enthusiasm and be useful professional connections for the rest of your career… you will come out of it with useful knowledge and new professional connections.
– Benjamin Leis, 2019 EQUIP graduate, staff physician and assistant professor, University of Saskatchewan College of Medicine


“I worked through a project bundle regarding safety culture during the EQUIP course. The course significantly contributed to the conceptualization, methodology and strategy for this multi-year project. This project is my key academic endeavor as a research chair, hence the course will have a significant impact on the progress of my career for the next at least half decade.

“We have provided support for a number of our faculty to participate in the EQUIP program – every single one of them raved about the experience and gained a more focused understanding of how to lead robust quality improvement programs locally, as well as expanded their network of experts in the field. We now have included participation in EQUIP as a component of our Hospital Medicine Fellow in Quality & Safety program. EQUIP is a great investment for us, enabling tremendous growth in our local capacity and expertise for improving care delivery.
