ACGME to recognize, explore 10 years of single GME accreditation during upcoming session

On Friday, Feb. 20, ACGME will commemorate a decade since the transition to a single accreditation system for U.S. graduate medical education (GME) began. The session will celebrate the new system’s achievements and envision new opportunities for the future of the medical profession. The presentation will take place from 10:30 a.m. to 11:45 a.m. as part of ACGME’s annual conference in San Diego; it aims to show attendees how integrating osteopathic and allopathic pathways has shaped standards and access to care and helped define the future of residency training.

The session will spotlight notable successes, such as curriculum innovations, advancements in faculty development, and enhanced learner support, while also describing continued challenges and opportunities to achieve the full potential of the vision for a single GME accreditation system.

Attendees will also be invited to interact with the session through interactive polling to help identify current challenges, opportunities for change and areas for continued growth. Insights and feedback gathered via this session will help shape future initiatives, with an emphasis on fostering collaboration and driving innovation in residency pathways for years to come.

The discussion will be led by Daniel L. Dent, MD, David A. Forstein, DO, Richard J. LaBaere II, DO, Sandra Snyder, DO and Deborah Spitz, MD. To learn more or to register to attend the presentation, visit ACGME’s conference site.
