Project Medical Education (PME) works with AAMC-member institutions to radically
advance policymakers' and opinion leaders understanding of medical education.
The PME model program is an excellent way for you to ensure that your key audiences
realize the significant contributions made by academic medicine and to garner
their support for medical education. The Project Medical Education model
is an interactive program where your attendees assume the roles of medical students,
residents, and faculty physicians. To date, nearly 800 policymakers have attended
a PME program hosted by over 60 institutions. The PME training manual and supplementary
materials are designed to minimize the amount of planning that you will need to
do when hosting policymakers at your own campus or hospital. To help you develop
your PME program, organize a planning team at your institution and attend this
workshop where you and your team members will: - find out more about
the advantages of hosting a PME program at your institution;
- gain step-by-step
planning instructions for organizing your PME event;
- determine the key
messages that you want to send to legislators and influential policymakers;
-
and hear about best practices, lessons learned, and ways to make sure your program
is a success.
Who should attend? This one-day workshop is
designed for faculty and staff who are responsible for education affairs, public
relations, institutional affairs, government relations or any other discipline
that may be involved in educating policymakers and influential stakeholders. If
you are considering hosting a PME program at your institution within the next
year, the workshop will prove to be extremely valuable. |
