Tandym Strengthens Locum Tenens Expertise With AAPPR Management Certification

Tandym Group is proud to share that members of our Locum Tenens team have completed the Locum Tenens Management Certificate through AAPPR (Association for Advancing Physician and Provider Recruitment).

This certification reflects a focused investment in expanding our market knowledge, deepening our operational expertise, and continuing to raise the bar in how we serve both healthcare organizations and providers navigating locum tenens opportunities.

Why This Certification Matters

The AAPPR Locum Tenens Management Certificate is designed to provide advanced, practical insight into the full lifecycle of locum tenens staffing, from provider engagement and compliance considerations to workforce planning, market dynamics, and long-term partnership strategy.

By completing this program, Tandym’s locums recruiters gain a more holistic understanding of how locum tenens functions on both sides of the partnership. That includes not only the recruiter and provider experience, but also the operational realities healthcare organizations manage behind the scenes.

As Rebecca Eisenberg, Senior Staffing Manager at Tandym, shared, the certification offered valuable perspective beyond the recruiting function.

“It was great to learn more about the industry from a different perspective, especially how locum tenens works on the hospital side. Having a clearer understanding of client-side timelines, credentialing processes, and internal workflows allows me to adjust my approach and better support both our clients and our candidates.”

This type of insight directly informs how Tandym advises, recruits, and supports throughout the locum tenens process.

How This Sets Tandym Apart

In a crowded staffing landscape, expertise matters. This certification further differentiates Tandym by demonstrating a measurable commitment to professional development and industry leadership within locum tenens.

Rather than relying solely on experience or volume, Tandym continues to invest in formalized education and certification that strengthens how we operate and how we partner.

What This Means for Candidates

For physicians and advanced practice providers, working with a certified locum tenens team means clearer communication, stronger advocacy, and guidance rooted in a full understanding of the process from start to finish.

This certification enhances Tandym’s ability to align opportunities more effectively, set realistic expectations, and support providers at every stage of their locum journey.

What This Means for Clients

Healthcare organizations benefit from partnering with a team that brings both market intelligence and operational rigor to the table. With a deeper understanding of client-side workflows, timelines, and credentialing considerations, Tandym is better positioned to anticipate challenges and deliver smarter, more strategic locum solutions.

It reinforces Tandym’s role as a trusted partner, not just a staffing vendor.

Looking Ahead

This certification complements Tandym’s existing locum tenens solutions and reinforces our commitment to continuous improvement. As the healthcare landscape evolves, so does our approach, combining education, experience, and innovation to remain a leader in the industry.
