"Just wanted you to know of the impact she is having on our faculty. Sending her to your fellowship has proven to be one of my best investments!!!"

 

This program was designed especially for busy academic physicians interested in improving their expertise in teaching/learning, educational leadership and in implementing educational innovations. We provide you the tools to have a positive impact on educational practices in your setting.

This program combines the desirability of face-to-face learning with the flexibility and freedom of distance assignments. By being away for only five or six weekends a year, you will effect immediate and direct change in your setting.
