The AAMC’s Grant Writers Coaching Group for NIH Awards program supports minority faculty in writing successful grants. The program is designed for faculty who are actively working on an NIH Career Development (K or R) proposal. The goal of the Grant Writers Coaching Group is to complement existing support that the faculty member has to submit a competitive proposal. This program is comprised of four primary activities: (1) orientation webinar; (2) virtual workshop; (3) individual consultation; and (4) virtual coach and peer review sessions. The workshop kicks off our 2023 Minority Faculty Leadership Development Seminar. Join us for both at the Fairmont El San Juan in San Juan, Puerto Rico, starting June 22 through June 25. Keep an eye on your inbox for announcements about speakers, networking, and coaching opportunities.

The Harvard Macy Institute offers five professional development courses each year in Boston. Its graduates have created a global community of medical educators and leaders dedicated to transforming healthcare delivery and education. Their Program for Educators in Health Professions is well-known for preparing faculty interested in careers as clinician educators and education administrators. Additionally, two of their programs focus on leadership: Leading Innovations in Health Care and Education and Leadership Development for Physicians in Academic Health Centers.

The Office of Extramural Research (OER) talks to NIH staff members about the ins and outs of NIH funding.

Episodes are available as mp3s for download here, via iTunes, or via RSS feed.

The TEACH certificate program was developed by the SGIM Education Committee to address the needs of junior clinician educators. This program focuses on teaching skills, offering quality instruction and assessment with tangible outcomes.

This one-year, cohort-based, national leadership certificate program develops educational leaders in health professions through evidence-based, collaborative learning and reflective practice. All LEAD participants are assigned a national LEAD Coach, participate in two in-person workshops (1.5 days each), complete a personalized Applied Learning Focus activity, and engage in a professional learning community with peers and expert LEAD faculty from across the country. The LEAD Certificate Program is targeted at early- to mid-career professionals who are aspiring to, or already in, leadership roles in health profession education.

A year-long, multi-faceted leadership and career development program for mid-career minority faculty hosted by the University of Pittsburgh Institute for Clinical Research Education (ICRE).

The TRANSFORM program aims to improve the diversity of the biomedical research workforce by enhancing the retention, promotion, and attainment of institutional leadership roles for faculty from groups historically under-represented in science and medicine (designated URM). TRANSFORM’s goal is to ensure that faculty at the associate professor level acquire the skills and experiences needed to advance to and thrive in more senior faculty and leadership positions. Expanding on the content from the AAMC’s Mid-Career Minority Faculty Leadership Development Seminar, TRANSFORM’s longitudinal curriculum includes executive coaching, mentoring, skills training and a partnered leadership project targeting an institutional problem or opportunity.

Applications open April 3, 2023 and are due June 12, 2023. Visit icre.pitt.edu/transform for more information and instructions on how to apply.
