Ongoing environmental scans performed to anticipate and address program challenges that could weaken student opportunities or intake. Further scans were used to identify underutilized or underserved communities which resulted in expanding field and clinical placements threefold while increasing student recruitment from these communities. In response, This position involved management of 3 accredited paramedicine programs verified by EQual™ (previously Canadian Medical Association) and sustainment of ISO 9001:2015 Certified status by maintaining superior documentation and deliverables.
