Speakers Bureau
The Joint Commission Speakers Bureau offers qualified speakers on a variety of topics related to Joint Commission accreditation, performance measurement and quality improvement.
How to Schedule a Speaker
The Joint Commission will make every effort to fill speaker requests with the most qualified individual. The request may be forwarded to Joint Commission Resources® (JCR®) or National Quality Forum (NQF) based on the topic and length of presentation. JCR and NQF are affiliates of The Joint Commission.
After a speaker has been confirmed, he or she will work directly with the requester to develop a presentation targeted to the particular audience. Please do not list a speaker in promotional material until confirmation from The Joint Commission has been received.
To request a speaker, complete the following form.
How Far in Advance to Request a Speaker
For us to match the best speaker with the program, we recommend that you contact The Joint Commission as early as possible — at least 8 weeks prior to the scheduled event. Please allow 2 weeks for processing after submitting your request. Speaker confirmations will be sent between 30-45 days in advance of the event.
