Distinguished educators, sustained excellence

The Academy of Medical Education Scholars (The Academy) is a school-wide organization of distinguished MCG educators who have demonstrated sustained excellence in educational activities and scholarship within the School of Medicine.  Its goals are:

1) To recognize faculty who have made outstanding contributions to medical education through excellence in

    teaching, innovation, and scholarship
2) To establish a forum for faculty with recognized accomplishments in medical education to facilitate the exchange of

    ideas, career development, and collaboration across departments
3) To improve the quality of medical education by fostering faculty development, curricular innovation, creating products

    that will advance the field, and developing educational leaders for the future

Membership in The Academy is open to anyone with a faculty appointment in the School of Medicine.  For more information, please refer to Frequently Asked Questions about The Academy.
