GME Development Series: A Roadmap to Building and Implementing a Comprehensive State GME Strategy

This GME Development Series webinar will highlight a new report on building and implementing a comprehensive state GME strategy.

Join us for an insightful webinar, “A Roadmap to Building and Implementing a Comprehensive State GME Strategy,” featuring national experts Emily Hawes and Lori Rodefeld from the UNC Sheps Center. In this session, the speakers will share key findings from their recent publication, which outlines a practical roadmap for states to develop and implement effective Graduate Medical Education (GME) strategies aligned with workforce needs.

Building on their work, Emily and Lori will highlight broader trends and key considerations in GME financing and workforce planning, including innovative approaches and policy opportunities for states. They will also present case examples that illustrate the roadmap in action, offering practical insights into how states can strengthen their physician training pipelines. Whether you are a policymaker, educator, or healthcare leader, this webinar will provide valuable perspectives and actionable strategies to advance GME through state-driven solutions.
