We’re at the mid-way point in the five-year transition to a single GME accreditation system—and this is our third pre-conference for osteopathic residency and fellowship programs. A lot has happened in the last few years, and we’re proud of our expanding family—not just on the program side, but also on the accreditation and governance side.

This special edition of the ACGME's weekly e-Communication includes a statement honoring the sacrifices of frontline caregivers, new Frequently Asked Questions, and news from Milestones and the Journal of Graduate Medical Education.

This week's e-Communication includes information on the 2021 Annual Educational Conference Call for Abstracts, aggregate reports available for the Resident/Fellow and Faculty Surveys, Review Committee nominations, and more.

Dr. Bonnie Olsen answered the ACGME’s questions on behalf of the team behind the poster, “Elder Abuse Education in Medical Residency: Evaluating the Efficacy of Elder Abuse Curriculum for Residents and Geriatric Fellows,” presented at the 2023 ACGME Annual Educational Conference.
