Abstract:
The Association of Academic Chairs of Emergency Medicine Chair Development Program (CDP) was started in 2014 to provide emergency medicine (EM) chairs and leaders who aspired to become academic chairs with EM-specific leadership training. Each class participated in a 1-year program, with five sessions taught primarily by EM leaders. Data from the first 5 years of the CDP are provided. A total of 81 participants completed the program (16% women). Twenty participants who were not chairs at entry have become EM chairs. Ratings of the CDP based on a survey of participants with a 94% response rate were very favorable. The CDP has been a popular and successful vehicle to increase leadership skills and prepare EM leaders for academic chair positions.
