ABSTRACT
This report discusses the process used by the Healthcare Quality Certification Board to internationalize its certification program. With some modifications this methodology can be utilized to define the role of any healthcare professional and to legitimize, create or restructure a certification program that assesses competency in a particular healthcare field. This process and the importance of quality management are related to today's cataclysmic healthcare environment which challenges efforts to confront cost and access.
