Background: Promoting the health of transgender and gender diverse people requires healthcare providers who are competent in gender-affirming communication and care. However, transgender health education is often absent in health professions curricula or isolated to a single course. This is partly attributed to faculty feeling unprepared to train students on key concepts in transgender health. Purpose: The purpose of this short communication is to describe the development and implementation of a novel Faculty Fellowship in Transgender Health, the outcome of which is a curricular map of integrated transgender health content in various healthcare professions. Five faculty members participated in the inaugural fellowship from the disciplines of physician assistant, nursing, athletic training, social work, and clinical psychology programs. Recommendations: By providing resources, training, and a network of peer educators, institutions can support faculty to think holistically about content relevant to transgender health and potential curricular adaptations in their respective disciplines.
