APPD Program Director School (APPD PDS)
The APPD is implementing and forming the highly requested APPD Program Director School (APPD PDS), envisioned as a nationally recognized program that provides a unique opportunity for pediatric academic leaders who have been in their role as program director for less than five years, those considering becoming a program director, or those wishing for a refresher, to engage and learn from seasoned program directors, pediatric educators, and other national leaders in pediatrics.
The inaugural Council, those individuals who will be responsible for developing and delivering curriculum to the APPD PDS, has been selected and includes the following APPD members:
Franklin Trimm, MD: Chair
University of South Alabama
Susan Bostwick, MD
