AUPN Boot Camp for Clerkship Directors

The Association of University Professors of Neurology (AUPN) offers a three-hour session at the AAN Annual meeting designed to be an interactive meeting for Neurology Clerkship Directors, both those new to the position and veterans. Also welcome are any residents, fellows, or faculty interested in improving teaching and curriculum-writing skills.

Faculty reviews data from clerkships around the country for the benefit of new directors and then concentrates on topics that should be relevant to clerkship directors both new and old. Faculty members are all experienced Clerkship Directors who are willing to contribute their original material to the group with the goal of building up a communal database of case materials and strategies.

Check out the materials from this year's Boot Camp, and from previous Boot Camps:
