A Call for Proposals!

Council of Faculty and Academic Societies, Group on Resident Affairs, and Organization of Resident Representatives 2024 Joint Spring Conference 

April 2 - 4, 2024

Arlington, Virginia

Submission Deadline: October 1, 2023, 11:59 p.m. PT

The joint Program Planning Committee invites proposals for small group concurrent sessions at the 2024 CFAS GRA ORR Joint Spring Conference. These sessions will provide attendees an opportunity to share emerging innovations, impactful practices, and efficacious approaches to fostering a robust faculty environment and GME system.

The highest preference will be given to proposals that:

• are timely and topically relevant
• provide readily accessible tools or resources that facilitate implementation
• include assessment data demonstrating successful outcomes/impact
• extend post conference learning
• demonstrate collaboration between CFAS, GRA, and ORR

The review committee encourages proposals that convey relevance to academic medicine and the faculty community; clarity of intent and organization; creativity and innovation; adaptability and viability of implementation at other institutions; and sustainability.

Only proposals submitted through the online submission form will be considered for review. If submitting multiple proposals, each must be submitted separately. Collaborative work between the three affinity groups (CFAS, GRA, and ORR) will be prioritized. If you have an idea for a collaboration but you don’t know the right co-presenters, please reach out to your staff contacts at the AAMC who will suggest session collaborators.

Conference fees, travel and lodging

All speakers, small group session panelists, and poster presenters are responsible for registering in advance of the conference and self-funding all conference associated expenses, inclusive of registration, travel, lodging, and ancillary costs associated with meeting travel and attendance.

Presenters and participants are expected to attend the duration of the conference, thus, there is no one-day or partial registration option.

Note: A Call for Posters and a Call for Ignite-style sessions will be launched separately at the time of registration.
