LCME Doesn’t Have to Be Hard
You have a lot to do in your role at a medical school, and LCME becomes a huge knot that you have to untangle. We’re on a mission to make LCME accreditation easy… yes, EASY!

“Christner Strategies has been instrumental in our continuous quality improvement efforts. They have established a program that I could implement well ahead of our site visit so that we will not be scrambling at the last minute. Lisa provided exceptionally detailed reviews of our readiness status with helpful summaries that we could take action on. I would highly recommend the Christner Strategies team for your accreditation needs.”

About Dr. Jenny Christner
I’m Jenny Christner, CEO of Christner Strategies.
I have been privileged to be a part of academic medicine for over 20 years. Moreover, I have learned that I love helping taking the stress off of medical school personnel that often comes from LCME accreditation. Your school CAN have a successful accreditation visit, and we can help get you there.
