CME Available for Faculty Development Series to Begin Mid-May

As Graduate Medical Education plans come together at WellStar Kennestone Hospital, we will see an increasing number of medical students doing clinical rotations that will include some third year students from Georgia Regents University (GRU). A large number of physicians across the System have become approved as clinical faculty at GRU and the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM). Although many WellStar physicians have had teaching experience at academic medical centers, most have not had formal training as instructors.

Faculty from GRU will join with Waldon Garriss, M.D. to present the first in a series of programs that will bring basics of educational theory along with practical tips on instructional techniques. The class with be held on Wednesday, May 14 at 6 p.m. in the Kennesaw Mountain Room at WellStar Kennestone Hospital.

The program will provide 2.0 hours of CME Credit. The program is open to any physician or APP who is interested in becoming a better teacher. Contact Don Campbell, M.D., senior vice president, Physician Leadership & Student Affiliation, at don.campbell@wellstar.org for further information.
