Message from the Wisconsin Regent, Mark Hamilton, FACHE, regarding tuition waivers:
Greetings. One of my responsibilites as your ACHE Regent is to provide tuition waivers to ACHE Education Events like the Congress on Administration or Clusters. The waiver is for tuition only and is intended for affiliates who are between jobs or who have limited education funds to take advantage of educational sessions and networking opportunities.
Each year, I have a number of Tuition Waivers which are awarded based on the above criteria.
With the 2012 ACHE Congress coming up March 19-22 in Chicago, if you would like to apply for a Tuition Waiver, please contact me at 608-890-7921 or via email, mhamilton@uwhealth.org
