PA Week 2025



PA week is October 6-12, and at PAEA, this celebration is all about YOU – the dedicated educators who work tirelessly to prepare the next generation of PAs. It’s a time to recognize the impact you’ve had on students, colleagues, and the broader PA community.  

We’re excited to invite your program to join PAEA’s national recognition campaign: “PA Educators Inspire.”
This community-driven effort shines a spotlight on the educators, staff, and mentors shaping the future of
the profession. 

What is the Campaign?

“PA Educators Inspire” is a simple, social media-based campaign designed to publicly celebrate the educators who make a difference. During PA Week (October 6-12), share photos or videos that showcase your pride in PA education. Program Directors were mailed a #PAEducatorsInspire sign to use and a digital version is provided below if you’d like to print additional copies.

How to Participate

  1. Take a photo – or record a short video – holding the sign
    • Students, faculty, and staff are all encouraged to join in, whether individually or together
    • Group photos with your program team, your class, or your colleagues are especially welcome!
  2. Post your photo or video to LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter/X using the hashtag #PAEducatorsInspire

Why Does This Matter?

At its core, teaching is an act of optimism. Through this campaign, we want you to elevate the people and stories that define PA education, and show the world how deeply committed you are to building the future of healthcare.  

We’re grateful for the work you do, and we can’t wait to celebrate you and your colleagues this PA Week.
