Program Director and Faculty Workshops
Workshops are designed to cover topics that are particularly important for GME Program Directors. Associate Program Directors and Medical Student Clerkship Directors are also encouraged to attend. Many of the workshops are relevant to other groups—Chief Residents, program faculty and/or Program Coordinators—who are then also invited to attend those sessions.
Generally, each workshop is offered twice, once at BWH and once at MGH, so that potential participants will have two chances to attend. In addition, most sessions are videotaped.

In the fall of 2011, the Partners Education Committee (PEC) endorsed an expectation that Program Directors attend at least 3 Program Director workshops per year unless they are getting comparable experience by attending a national meeting of Program Directors, attending an AAMC or ACGME conference, serving on an RRC, or participating in a similar activity.
* These core topics will be repeated approximately every 2-3 years.
