The Atrium Health Administrative Fellowship is a one-year project-based program that selects up to three fellows each year. It is designed to provide the fellow with broad knowledge of corporate operations and strategic planning. Under the guidance of their preceptor, fellows gain substantial experience and exposure to diverse divisions, departments and cross-functional teams throughout the organization.
Specifically, fellows will each lead a large system-wide project that advances Atrium Health's mission and vision; is anchored in our strategic priorities and impacts the continuum of health and care. Ample opportunity will be available for fellows to be active participants in other projects and initiatives as determined. In addition, fellows will be encouraged to pursue their interests in operations, strategy, finance, quality and/or other areas of healthcare.
For over 40 years, Atrium health has participated in offering administrative fellowships. The Atrium Health Administrative Fellowship is focused on health system operations. Our system-based program provides a robust experience of challenging work in critical areas across Atrium Health that will support growth and development of the fellows as they begin a career in healthcare leadership and administration.
The Atrium Health Administrative Fellowship Program at Atrium Health has created a framework that is both structured and flexible. Key objectives are to match project-based work that advances our mission and vision with the fellow's interests to provide for a mutually beneficial relationship. These qualities include but are not limited to:
