Cheers to the Department of Ob-Gyn Education Team on GME Professionals Day 2025!
The third Friday in August is National Graduate Medical Education (GME) Professionals Day, an opportunity to recognize the work of professionals at all levels of graduate medical education. Please join us in thanking our incredible Department of Ob-Gyn education team!
Providing high-quality, comprehensive education to medical students, graduate students, residents, and fellows is a central part of the Department of Ob-Gyn mission. Our graduates go on to be lifelong learners and leaders in reproductive health, equipped with the skills, knowledge, curiosity, and humility needed to provide high-quality care and advance our field. None of this would be possible without the amazing individuals on our education team.
The entire education team works together to foster an environment that supports every trainee throughout their time in our department and appreciates each individual for their unique experience and perspective. They keep our residency and fellowships running smoothly, recruit stellar learners every year, support medical students through their clerkships and residency applications, execute innovative training opportunities in our simulation lab, and so much more.
We are incredibly lucky to work alongside such talented, dedicated people in support of our department’s educational goals. Please help us thank the wonderful team for everything they do for the learners and teachers in our department!
