Residents & Fellows Council
The AOGME Residents and Fellows Council (RFC) was established in 2018 to develop future leaders in the osteopathic profession by creating a community and forum for residents and fellows to connect, collaborate and learn.
The AOGME RFC's purpose is to:
- Provide a home for residents and fellows to come together, exchange ideas and network
- Serve as a platform for residents and fellows to voice their ideas and concerns to GME leaders
- Develop future leaders
- Promote well-being along the continuum of GME
- Support advocacy efforts that address the needs of medical trainees
