HSI Recognized as a Model for Performance Improvement

On top of the national recognition it received earlier this year for being an outstanding community college innovation, the MCC-Penn Valley Health Science Institute is now also becoming known as a model for performance improvement.

The HSI – built on a philosophy that interdisciplinary, experiential learning increases student understanding and, therefore, professional effectiveness – will be featured this week at a meeting of the local chapter of the International Society for Performance Improvement. Sandy McIlnay, director of the HSI, will be the guest speaker for the event, which is part of the ISPI’s Emerging Trends in Performance Improvement series. McIlnay will discuss the development and implementation of the HSI’s revolutionary learning environment and its impact on advancing healthcare career training and education.
