Office of Admissions: Engagement and Leadership Opportunities for Trainees.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Encouraging trainee engagement with the Office of Admissions can be an effective method of training for a future career in academic medicine and allow trainees to develop critical leadership skills.

Methods

This workshop consisted of a short didactic presentation, a large-group activity, and case discussions in an effort to address four objectives describing the functions of the Office of Admissions, as well as identifying opportunities for involvement and leadership skills fostered through engaging in admissions activities. The module was administered to diverse students and residents at three regional conferences at US medical schools between September and December 2019. Pre- and postworkshop surveys were used to analyze the efficacy of the workshop.
