The CHIA credential demonstrates that an individual has a broad grounding of health informatics knowledge and experience.

CHIA has been established to assist in generating a supply of certified health informatics practitioners .  The CHIA credential signifies that a health informatics professional has had their experience assessed through the eligibility check process to undertake CHIA and had their knowledge checked through the examination.

By employing professionals with the CHIA credential organisations can benefit from:

• The CHIA certification process has exposed the health informatician to a wide range of contemporary information and assessed them against consistent, measurable and industry recognised standards.
• CHIA certified employees are up to date and have the breadth of skills required for their roles.
• Demonstration of professional competency by continuing to keep their skills and education up to date by recertifying their credentials every three years.
• Raising the profile of Health Informatics as a profession
• Organisations that visibly support CHIA certification also send a signal to prospective and existing employees that professionalism counts.
