HESI STEWARDSHIP PROGRAM

The HESI Stewardship Program, administered by the Program Strategy and Stewardship Committee (PSSC) of the HESI Board of Trustees, is a mechanism to ensure high quality, scientific content of HESI committee work products; encourage a continued focus by each committee on achievable objectives; ensure the best use of critical resources; and enhance HESI’s scientific credibility.  The Stewardship Program responds directly to an objective in the HESI Strategic Plan:  Optimize the scientific portfolio to ensure quality and value.
