The DOM Office of Education is excited to bring back Roads to Success for faculty educators following last year’s highly successful workshop.
This 1.5-day seminar will lead faculty through foundational aspects of teaching successfully in modern-day medical education. Join us to receive practical and actionable guidance for building an educational career path, enhancing teaching skills, supporting learner and educator wellness, and understanding patient safety & quality improvement education within the WashU/BJH system.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided each day. Participants that complete both days of the seminar will receive a course certificate.
