Welcome to the Trinitas Hospital Education Department "home" page. We hope you find the information included in our site helpful and interesting.

The purpose of the Trinitas Hospital Education Department is to recognize and be responsive to the educational needs of all Trinitas employees. The Educators possess the combined ability, talent, expertise and creativity to meet the challenges of this Institution and the healthcare environment.

The Education Department recognizes that cost effective education, training and developmental goals must be achieved and outcomes measured that signify quality and excellence. We intend to provide opportunity and resources for learning and staff development through collaboration with all Departments.

Acknowledging the multicultural diversity of our employees, we believe that each employee brings with them the richness of their culture and uniqueness of their person. Thus, we learn from one another. This reinforces the concept that learning is a dynamic process.

Recognizing the challenges that result from rapid change in the structure of healthcare, the Faculty is committed to facilitating excellence in practice and employee competency as clearly defined by The Trinitas Standards.
