37-credit, 12-month Doctorate

[FireMedic_Philosopher]

This entire program is in healthcare administration, which is why I think they could have just called it a DHA instead of making up that long, weird name.

Guessing the reason for the weird name is due to the very small number of credit hours required. (under 40 hours for a regionally accredited doctorate.)

If they tried to label it a DHA I don't know if CAHME or the ACCME would even consider accrediting the program. 

In that sense perhaps it is better to have a short program with a weird name that will draw folks in... compared to a traditional name where folks will maybe look for CAHME approval and turn away when they do not see it.

No, it looks to me like this is a misguided attempt to compete with the one year doctorate offered by the school across town... nevermind that it is neither CAHME approved or regionally accredited.
