NYCOMEC 2018 Strategic Plan Unveils Exciting Initiatives
As part of our ongoing strategic planning efforts, NYCOMEC is introducing several new initiatives to enhance collaborative opportunities among our members.
We've established an
Academic Council, comprised of DIOs, DMEs, and other GME leaders, to provide input and guidance on NYCOMEC faculty development and programming activities, assist in coordinating NYCOMEC-wide scholarly activity and research support, serve as a forum to discuss issues such as ACGME standards, federal/state legislation and regulations, and GME-related opportunities, as well as provide guidance to our newly established Educators' and Coordinators' Assemblies.
Our
Graduate Medical Education Committee (GMEC) provides oversight of all NYCOMEC-sponsored, ACGME-accredited programs, as well as compliance with ACGME Institutional, Common and Specialty/Subspecialty-specific Program Requirements.
Our new
Educators' Assembly serves as a forum for program leaders and faculty, offering opportunities to collaborate with your peers, share best practices and seek shared solutions to mutual problems.
The newly established
Coordinators' Assembly provides your program coordinators and other GME support staff with educational programs to enhance their skills and knowledge, while also providing opportunities for peer-to-peer discussions on issues of common concern.
The next GMEC meeting is scheduled for February 13, 2018, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. EST. It will be followed by the Academic Council's meeting scheduled at 8:30 a.m. and a faculty development program titled Understanding the C.L.E.R.Process, presented by Henry Rosenberg, M.D.
Dates for Educators' and Coordinators' Assemblies meetings are being arranged and information will be disseminated shortly.
