Our mission is to promote excellence in the education of physicians throughout
their professional lives and, thereby, to contribute to improving the
health of the public.
The GEA is open to individuals with professional responsibility in medical student, resident, and continuing medical education, designated by deans, hospital directors, or academic societies. The GEA is organized in four regions: Southern, Central, Northeast, and Western. The GEA is also organized in sections reflecting the continuum of medical education: Undergradute Medical Education (UGME); Graduate Medical Education (GME); Continuing Medical Education (CME); and Research in Medical Education (RIME).
The annual GEA national meeting, the Research in Medical Education (RIME) Conference, and the Innovations in Medical Education Exhibits (IME) are held each fall in conjunction with the AAMC Annual Meeting. Each regional group also holds an annual spring meeting.
