Webinar on importance of public health experinece

The AAMC-CDC Cooperative Agreement Webinar Series has scheduled a session on February 5 from 7-8 pm titled, “Enhancing Your Medical Career with a Public Health Experience.” AAMC is hosting this webinar in partnership with Primary Care Progress, an organization that is committed to transforming the primary care workforce through interprofessional collaboration and strategic local advocacy. This webinar is an opportunity for students, residents, and mentors to understand the value of a hands-on public health experience during their medical career. The session will highlight a specific CDC training program as one pathway to pursuing a meaningful public health experience in medical education, namely the Epidemic Intelligence Service—a two-year post-graduate training program of service and on-the-job learning.
