Utilizing objective data and analysis, we aim to guide the Jacobs School community through the process of continuously improving the ways in which we fulfill the Jacobs School philosophy vision: to educate, to discover, to heal.
The Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) is the accrediting body for programs of medical education leading to the Doctor of Medicine degree (MD) in the United States and Canada.
The Office of Accreditation and Quality Improvement (OAQI) will determine which elements of the Jacobs School will be monitored based on internal assessments and the LCME 2016 publication Implementing a System for Monitoring Performance in LCME Accreditation Standards.
OAQI staff have been trained in Quality Improvement processes and tools. If you need help with a QI project, contact the OAQI, we would be happy to assist you and your team in achieving your goals in an efficient and effective way.
