Welcoming Our New PAEA Workshop Facilitators

November 14, 2022

Almost 30 PA faculty members from around the country submitted applications in response to the 2022 open call for new workshop facilitators. These highly qualified applicants were eager to join the team responsible for facilitating PAEA’s core workshops for new faculty, new clinical coordinators, and new program directors.

After a rigorous application and interview process, we are pleased to welcome the new PAEA Workshop Facilitators listed below. These individuals will join the group of current facilitators and have their first opportunity to facilitate a workshop in 2023.

We owe our thanks to several members of the Education Programming Steering Committee who lent their time and expertise to review the applications and recorded virtual interviews.

The next workshop facilitator application cycle will open in March 2023. More details are available on our website.
