Week 4: Investing in Professional Development

This week, our focus shifts to the importance of continuous professional development. The ACGME encourages program coordinators to seek opportunities for both professional and personal growth. Why is this essential? As the landscape of medical education evolves, staying current with best practices, emerging trends, and new technologies is vital. By investing in your development, you not only enhance your skills and knowledge but also contribute more effectively to the success of your residency program. Whether through workshops, certifications, or networking with peers, ongoing education is a cornerstone of long-term success in GME. In our final week, we’ll discuss how you can support educational activities within your program.
