Evaluation of the IT Professionals in
Health Care: University-Based Training.
The Workforce Program, created under
Section 3016 of the HITECH Act, was
intended to provide ‘‘assistance to
institutions of higher education (or
consortia thereof) to establish or expand
health informatics education programs,
including certification, undergraduate,
and masters degree programs, for both
health care and information technology
students.’’ The evaluation of the
Workforce Program is a new information
collection activity which will explore
program challenges, provide critical
formative feedback to the Workforce
grantee institutions on their activities,
and determine whether the Workforce
Program overall was successful in
helping to build a skilled workforce
equipped to meet the heightened

continuous improvement. The data
collection efforts include a web-based
baseline survey and a web-based followup survey of university students
enrolled in ONC funded programs.
The anticipated data collection will
begin in June 2011. Data collection will
occur continuously through the 24
months of the campaign. The data
collected will help identify program
challenges, provide critical formative
feedback to the Workforce grantee
institutions on their activities, and
determine whether the Workforce
Program overall was successful in
helping to build a skilled workforce
equipped to meet the heightened
demands of the current environment.

The data collection efforts include a

Program. The evaluation will determine
how the Workforce Grant Program has
contributed to the development of
comprehensive, integrated health IT
training programs across community
colleges, universities, and other
programs. This study will use surveys
and other forms of data collection, such
