AHEAD MEMBERS Selected for AAMC LEAD Certificate Program

Share

Congratulations to Duke AHEAD members Drs. Poonam Sharma and Charles "Chip" Woodard, who were recently selected for the AAMC LEAD (Leadership Education & Development) Certificate program.  

The LEAD Certificate Program was first developed in 2009 as a two-year, cohort-based, educational leadership development certificate program, and implemented in the AAMC Southern Group on Educational Affairs. The program continued to experience growth and increased alignment with the AAMC from 2009-2017. In 2017, the program officially transitioned to the AAMC. The LEAD Certificate Program is now a formal part of the AAMC’s leadership development offerings. The program is delivered as a one-year, cohort-based, national (vs. regional) leadership development certificate program. It will be implemented by the AAMC, with advisory and faculty support from the AAMC’s Medical Education community. 

The program is a combination of virtual & in-person workshops, self directed learning activities, and coaching. 

Duke AHEAD is proud to sponsor Drs. Sharma and Woodard as they become AAMC LEAD certified.
