Summary

The Graduate Medical Education (GME) Leadership Development Certificate Program will be delivered as a one-year, cohort-based, leadership development certificate program. The GME program will be held at the Hyatt Regency in Orlando, Florida on April 26-28, 2018 and at the AAMC Learning Center in Washington, D.C. on January 11-12, 2019. Additionally, participants will identify and complete an Action Learning Project (ALP) as a way to apply new skills and integrate the resources and support from the program into a visible leadership contribution to their institutions. As such, participants are also required to attend the 2019 AAMC Group on Resident Affairs (GRA) Spring Meeting being held Sunday April 7, 2019 through Tuesday, April 9, 2019 to present their posters and attend a graduation ceremony.

Based on the AAMC Group on Resident Affairs’ Institutional GME Leadership Competencies, the GME Leadership Development Certificate Program, an application-based certificate program, is the premier longitudinal educational experience to establish the necessary skill set for new GME leaders, and enrich the knowledge of more advanced participants. Case-based methodology and other interactive teaching platforms are utilized to engage attendees in real-world scenarios to increase their ability to manage, direct, and strategize their educational offices and staff.

This certificate program prepares participants to transition the program’s concepts into actionable constructs that enhance their work, regardless of the size or scope of their organization. Emphasis is also placed on developing relationships with individuals and national workgroups outside of their own institution or specialty.

The GME Leadership Development Certificate Program is open to all GME leaders, or those aspiring to transition into the role. The newly-designed curriculum will be the most beneficial for new (in position less than 3 years) DIOs, GME Deans, Vice Presidents for Academic Affairs, GME Directors, and others who are responsible for the institutional oversight of GME. Preference in placement will be given to these groups. Other leaders who are more senior, or who have taken previous AAMC offerings, are still welcome to attend, and placement will be granted as space allows.

Upon successful completion of the program, participants will have enhanced their abilities to:

  • Develop/enhance regional and national networks of professional peer groups, in addition to understanding the specialty groups available for membership;
  • Understand and actualize the difference between management and leadership, knowing that both skill sets must be enriched for success as a DIO;
  • Design an organizational structure for their educational mission which stresses agility and proficiency; identifying potential contributors and developing their skill sets;
  • Establish a competency in financial principles; understand the options of educational and medical financing, and develop a long-range monetary plan;
  • Obtain a working knowledge of disruptive technology, and gauge its potential for effective use;
  • Differentiate between professional development and performance reviews; both from a personal and from a supervisory standpoint. Design a process to provide feedback and stimulate the desire for new knowledge to other GME leaders within the home institution;
  • Demonstrate proficiency in comprehending ACGME policies, and those of other regulatory agencies, and implement appropriate protocols;
  • Lead the GME enterprise in the role of advocacy for trainees, faculty, and patients;
  • Synthesize applicable legal standards for medical education; devise appropriate protocols for the GME Office, and convey a standardized approach to others involved in graduate medical education.

Additional Information

To successfully complete the program, participants are required to attend the April and January modules and the AAMC Group on Resident Affairs Spring Meeting.
