AAMC Leadership Development Seminars

The Office of Faculty Affairs (OFA) regularly sponsors faculty members who are selected to join four of the Association of American Medical College's (AAMC) Leadership Development Seminars. Deadlines for registration will regularly be communicated on the OFA website and faculty newsletter.

Registration Funding

OFA has limited funding available each academic year to cover registration for faculty members who are selected by AAMC to attend their leadership seminars. Faculty members can apply for the seminars directly through AAMC and if selected, OFA will reimburse their registration funding. Please email the Office of Faculty Affairs at ms-ofa@umn.edu before submitting your application to confirm the availability of funding for your seminar. Note that OFA's sponsorship covers only registration for the seminars. We encourage departments to provide supplemental funding for travel, hotel, and per diem.
