From Struggle to Strategy: Advancing Scholarly Activity in Your Residency Program

This webinar will provide information and guidance on scholarly activity for GME programs

Scholarly activity is a critical component of residency training and accreditation, yet many programs struggle to create a sustainable and structured approach. This webinar explores practical strategies for integrating scholarly activity into residency programs without overwhelming faculty or residents. Participants will learn how to build a culture of inquiry, leverage institutional resources and develop long-term frameworks that support meaningful and manageable scholarly engagement.

Webinar Objectives:

  • Establish a holistic approach to evaluate your program's scholarly activity.
  • Determine opportunities for practice-based, curriculum-based, and community-based scholarly activity for residents and faculty.
  • Explore practical strategies to balance scholarly activity with clinical responsibilities while fostering a culture of continuous inquiry.

Speakers:

  • Sarah Cole, DO, Program Director, Mercy St. Louis Family Medicine Residency Program
  • Kim Stutzman, MD, Program Director, Family Medicine Residency of Idaho Nampa Program
