Academic Credentialing Program ACP
Give your students an advantage in the job market!
Teach your medical management program with PAHCOM books, and your students graduate ready to earn the Certified Medical Manager (CMM) or HIT Certified Manager (HITCM-PP) credential, a professional certification on top of their degree.
Free Books for Teachers
Instructors, program directors, and other faculty can review PAHCOM books free for 30 days, with up to three faculty per school at a time. Once your school adopts a book, every instructor gets free access for each term it’s assigned to students. Your review includes the practice tools that come with each book.
PAHCOM eBooks are available through Follett Higher Education, VitalSource, and CommHIT Academy.
