Join a nationwide community of residency program leaders – program directors, faculty, nurses and administrators – at the upcoming Residency Leadership Summit (previously PDW and RPS Residency Education Symposium). While the event name and virtual format may be new, we’re still offering the same actionable, inspiring ideas, key program updates and vital networking opportunities that your team has come to expect and value for years as part of the live symposium.
Access practical strategies exclusively created for family medicine residencies and leverage the shared experience to further build your team’s expertise and connections. Sessions are designed to inspire, support, and empower your program to understand and maintain compliance with evolving graduate medical education accreditation standards. New this year, delve into the latest information on COVID-19 impacts and other emerging topics that your programs must address in early 2021.
Virtual event programming also includes updates from the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education’s Review Committee for Family Medicine (ACGME RC-FM), American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM), and the AAFP Government Relations team.
Take part in special programming designed for administrator/coordinator attendees that addresses the new ABFM Time Away Policy, Milestones 2.0 and lessons learned from virtual interviews, and core topics like ACGME WebAds, PEC & AP. Additional registration fees apply.
