Current Leadership Training Offerings

Early Career Leadership Alliance

The AAP Section on Early Career Physicians (SOECP) has launched a new leadership program, Early Career Leadership Alliance (ECLA), designed to empower and inspire future leaders. In line with the AAP Equity Agenda, the ECLA is a 2-year training initiative crafted to cultivate leaders and foster a community of leadership among physicians, with a particular emphasis on supporting members that are underrepresented in medicine (URIM). This program is a strategic response to the imperative for URIM members to receive tailored programming, coaching, and structural support to attain their objectives, aligning with both the participants' goals and the Academy's objectives for workforce diversity and health equity.

Applications are currently closed for both participants and faculty.
