CANCELLED: Silver Quality Award Application Workshop
THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

The workshop will be held as four virtual modules on August 31 and September 2, 9 & 10.

Since Care Providers of Minnesota began offering this workshop, approximately 80% of workshop participants who submitted a Silver Quality Award application were awarded the Silver Quality Award! The national average is 50%.

Silver Quality Award workshop brochureThe Care Providers of Minnesota Silver Quality Award virtual workshop series helps organizations better understand the award application criteria, scoring, and strategies for a successful 2022 application submission. Registration includes four virtual workshop modules, three virtual Q&A sessions, plus workshop participants are eligible for a discounted consulting rate with Paul Grizzell if more coaching is desired.

The workshop is designed for key leaders to better understand how to accelerate their progress from the Bronze level to the Silver level of recognition. Suggested team participants are administrators/executive directors/licensed assisted living directors and directors of nursing or clinical nurse manager,s along with other leadership team members—including owners. A team approach is the most effective method to develop your application in a manner that makes it your “management document,” and not just an award application. With one virtual registration, you can gather your team to take part in the virtual workshop.

While not focused on Gold Quality Award applications, those interested in submitting Gold Quality Award applications are welcome to take part. This is an award application strategy workshop, not a writing application workshop.
This virtual workshop series is about more than an award; besides gaining a better understanding of what examiners are looking for and how to use the award criteria as an improvement tool, you will learn how to use the award process to focus, align, and accelerate your performance excellence efforts—becoming a high-performing organization.

  • Understand the details of the Baldrige Process and Results categories
  • Begin to identify your organization’s Strengths and Opportunities for Improvement as you practice writing responses with the assistance of experienced examiners
The Silver Quality Award Criteria are largely based on the Baldrige Excellence Builder.
