Fellowship Fridays: A Case Study in Interdisciplinary Curriculum Design to Elevate an Advanced Practice Postgraduate Training Experience.

Abstract

Program directors collaborated with key stakeholders to develop "Fellowship Fridays"-a new curriculum component designed to enhance peer support, professional development, and interdisciplinary learning. This structured, monthly 4-hour session brings together advanced practice provider Fellows for facilitated, multimodal learning led by the advanced practice provider leadership team. The approach prioritizes longitudinal peer support, early access to mentorship, and exposure to diverse topics, including communication workshops, social determinants of health simulation, academic development, and provider performance metrics.
