Save the Date: 2023 FDPDW

Save the date to join family medicine program directors, faculty and program coordinators from across the country for the 2023 ACOFP Faculty Development and Program Directors' Workshop (FDPDW), which will take place completely virtually, January 27–29, 2023. As you know, faculty development is a core ACGME family medicine residency requirement, and attending our workshop is a great way to help meet that requirement.
  
Many of this year's faculty development presentations are linked to the required training elements as listed in the ACGME family medicine program requirements. And, for program directors, faculty and program coordinators, this is a great opportunity to hear directly from the ACGME Family Medicine Review Committee and the ACGME Osteopathic Recognition Committee, as well as to learn more about the new milestones from the director of that committee. 

 
 



Best Practices in Selecting and Interviewing FM Residency Applicants

Deciding which residency applicants to interview (screening) and which to offer positions after the interview (selection) can be two daunting challenges. The investment of time and effort required to complete this two-step process is critical as the result of a decision to “match with a residency applicant” can cause years of gratification or despair. Join Rob Danoff, DO, MS, FACOFP, and Donald J. Sefcik, DO, MS, MBA, FACOFP, for an upcoming presentation on Friday, September 23 at 2 pm CT. During this free presentation, they will discuss screening and selection methods, with an emphasis on the interviewing process, to increase the probability that your residency program fills with overachievers (i.e., those that will exceed your expectations).
