    <Abstract>Background: It is necessary to evaluate the program to measure and maintain its quality during implementation. This study aimed to evaluate the Bachelor of Healthcare Management educational program at Yazd University of Medical Sciences using the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) evaluation model. Methods: This descriptive-cross-sectional study was conducted at Yazd University of Medical Sciences in 2023, with the participation of 8 faculty members, 95 students, and 327 graduates. Three questionnaires, encompassing four dimensions and nine domains, were used as data collection tools. The data were analyzed using the SPSS software (version 27), employing the ANOVA test and descriptive statistics. Results: In terms of context, input, process, and product, the overall scores for the educational program of the course were 3.03, 2.96, 3.06, and 2.99, respectively. Concerning the overall score across all dimensions, faculty members scored higher than students, and a statistically significant difference was observed between the overall scores of faculty members and students. A significant correlation was found among the dimensions investigated. In general, this training course was evaluated at a relatively favorable level. Conclusion: Given the course’s low score in the ‘appropriateness of curricula with approved topics’ section, it is feasible to increase the program’s overall desirability by implementing some modifications in the course topics and accentuating the students’ skill development.</Abstract>
