Expanding your Career and Healthcare Opportunities (ECHO)

AN ACCELERATED CAREER DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Catalyst Learning’s products help clients “grow their own” workforce.  We emphasize knowledge paired with career advising.  ECHO students already stand on a foundation of knowledge that includes strong reading, math, and computer skills.  They have climbed the first rung of their career ladder; job titles include sterile processing tech, supervisor and lead secretary.  Through ECHO, these employees realize their full advancement potential.

The five month ECHO program covers topics like medical terminology, anatomy, physiology and medical ethics. Catalyst Learning’s Career and Learning Plan (CLP) links learning to action; students identify goals, create a plan, and advance. ECHO pairs stellar employees with a Coach.  Students identify career advisors and mentors, which is critical for successful outcomes.


ECHO keeps hospitals on the offensive in the fight against staffing shortages. 

Increase:

  • Productivity (56% of supervisors report increased productivity from Catalyst grads)
  • Employee Engagement (90% of our graduates feel their employer provides opportunity to improve knowledge and skill)
  • Retention (Catalyst employers boost their rates 10%-20%)

Catalyst Learning works with over 320 hospitals in 39 states.  We share a mutual vision with our clients: improve lives and retention through education.  Our integrated on-site delivery system and career planning tools produce strong outcomes. 

A recent survey of students reports:

  • 20% received a job promotion within one year after graduation
  • 30% enrolled in college within one year after graduation
  • 46% gained more responsibility in their current position
