This week's edition includes approaching deadlines for the National Learning Community of Sponsoring Institutions meeting's Call for Submissions, the Annual Educational Conference's Calls for Sessions, and the Milestones Year-End Reporting Window.

ACGME CEO Dr. Nasca explores recent statistics on resident deaths reported in Academic Medicine and offers strategies and interventions for programs to follow in supporting learner and faculty member well-being year round.

The ACGME is embarking on a full review of its Common Program Requirements in two phases over the next 18 months.

Nine Pathway Leaders will form a Patient Safety Collaborative focused on creating and testing a framework for residents and fellows to engage with their learning environments in promoting a culture of safety.

The ACGME released its 2016-2017 Data Resource Book, which includes data on the size, scope, and distribution of graduate medical education in the US. Data shows residents in ACGME pipeline programs increased 20 percent over the last 10 years.

Thirty proposals were selected for their ability to enhance the resident/fellow-patient connection, and foster joy and meaning in work. A total of $130,000 at different funding levels will be awarded, renewable up to two years.

Prepare for the upcoming new ACGME Cloud features, comment on proposed Requirements, or apply for Back to Bedside funding.

This week's e-Communication includes opportunities for residents and fellows to join Review Committees; information on being interviewed about the Milestones; a call for Appeals Panel members; and more.

See details about the nutrition essay contest for residents and fellows, apply to be an ACGME appeals panelist, or comment on proposed requirement revisions.

Learn about the newly approved Program Requirements for Combined Programs; plan to attend the 2025 ACGME Annual Educational Conference; and participate in office hours about Non-Standard Training programs.
