What People Are Saying:

“I chose to take the IPW's CWO certification program with the anticipation that I would be appointed the CWO for my institution, but I didn't have much of an idea what that role would look like and what I would actually do. Through the course of the 6 week program, Dr. Kowalski very effectively taught a comprehensive curriculum about all aspects of what an informed and skilled CWO needs to know, as well as mentored each student in the program to identify their specific institutional situation and how to best approach their leadership role in developing a comprehensive wellbeing program for their institution. I concluded the program and went on to give my capstone presentation to my hospital's medical executive committee, and it was extremely well-received! I am now the chief physician wellness officer, and am in the process of creating my team! I cannot recommend IPW's CWO certification program highly enough!” Pamela Dyne, MD Chief Physician Wellness Officer Olive View-UCLA Medical Center Professor of Clinical Emergency Medicine UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine

Pamela Dyne, MD

“This CWO training and certification program was invaluable in changing my approach to developing a Wellness program at my institution. Each session and the Capstone project helped to deepen my knowledge of the literature and how to use available resources to develop a program that was tailored to my institution and that could be effectively implemented. Alicia offered a safe and open environment to discuss problems and hurdles.” -----CWO Program Participant, MD
