Overview

The AMA invites individuals with an interest in academic coaching to apply to the annual AMA Academic Coaching Implementation Workshop. This workshop brings together leaders and educators who have (or anticipate having) responsibility for developing and implementing coaching programs in undergraduate or graduate medical education at their institution. 

As a participant, you’ll gain the knowledge and tools needed to implement, refine and evaluate a successful program. Join a community of academic faculty from across the country to learn, network and exchange ideas. 

Those accepted to the workshop will receive complimentary admission to the inaugural AMA Coaching Summit, Aug. 13–14 at the Chicago Marriott Downtown Magnificent Mile. The call for applications is open through March 25.
