INTRODUCTION: Quality improvement (QI) work is imperative to support health systems in providing safe and effective care. Conflicting demands, including the need to complete standard work recognized for academic promotion, can hinder meaningful participation in QI work. METHODS: At our quaternary pediatric hospital, we completed a series of plan-do-study-act cycles around developing QI educational opportunities. Our outcome measure was the number of publications containing the phrase "Quality Improvement" with at least 1 author from our institution. Our process measures included the cumulative number of employees trained in QI methods or writing. RESULTS: The number of publications increased significantly from an average of 3.4 to 12.5 per quarter. The total number of employees trained in QI methods and QI writing increased throughout the study period. CONCLUSIONS: A series of interventions designed to increase the QI fluency of our workforce were associated with an increase in the number of QI publications at our institution.
