CurrMIT Training and Materials

Training Workshops

Want to develop new or more advanced skills using the Curriculum Management and Information Tool (CurrMIT), AAMC's national curriculum database? Interested in enhancing your skills in educational/curriculum research? How about learning how to use the new CurrMIT/LCME Database Wizard?

We will be offering three-hour, hands-on workshops at each of the GEA regional meetings, with time for participants to network with each other and discuss with CurrMIT staff your institution-specific issues.

If you've never heard of CurrMIT or how it can assist you with curriculum management and benchmarking, please join us at any of these workshops. We'll arrange an overview for you and talk with you about how CurrMIT can assist you in curriculum planning, review, management, benchmarking, reporting, and a host of other issues you deal with on a daily basis.

The registration deadline is March 15. You must register for the regional meetings before registering for the CurrMIT training workshop. Visit the GEA Regional Web sites for registration information.
