APA Educational Scholars Program
The mission of the APA Educational Scholars Program is to assist pediatric educators in developing themselves as productive, advancing and fulfilled faculty members and to increase the quality, status and visibility of pediatric educators in academia.

This program is being offered to members of the Pediatric Academic Societies who wish to earn a Certificate of Excellence in Educational Scholarship. The curriculum includes didactic sessions, participation in and review of workshops, and a mentored project. Scholars will be expected to complete the full curriculum, including projects, over 3-4 years.

Cohort I, including 30 scholars, was recruited in Fall 2006 and began the program in May 2006. Cohort II: Community Pediatrics, including 10 scholars, began the program in May 2007. Applications will next be accepted in the fall of 2008. Applications for Cohort III will be reviewed in the fall of 2008. To apply for a place in Cohort III, click here.
