Centers of Excellence Program Closure

NISH has decided to close the Centers of Excellence (COE) Program. This decision is not a reflection of the ability of the three non-profit agencies (NPAs) to serve as a COE or of the quality of the services rendered. Our NPAs have not accessed and utilized the COE Program as anticipated. This combined with reduced revenue stream will not allow NISH to support the continued funding of the COE Program.

NISH is still committed to provide support to the NPAs but will do that using NISH internal resources. If you would like to access NISH resources to support in the services you provide to your customers, please contact your NISH regional representative.
