Workshop Descriptions

ARC-PA Accreditation and You

This in-person workshop will provide PA program faculty with an overview of the accreditation process, including sessions designed to give participants the opportunity to ask questions and discuss the interpretation of individual Standards 5th Edition.  It focuses on bringing the Standards 5th Edition and required data reports together as working tools for programs. Sessions will address the application and site visit, data collection and analysis over time for the self-study report and specific Standards cited most often during accreditation reviews.

This program is not yet approved for CME credit. Conference organizers plan to apply for 18 AAPA Category 1 CME credits from the AAPA Review Panel. The total number of approved credits is yet to be determined.

ARC-PA Self-Study Workshop

This interactive workshop will help participants understand and apply the elements of data analysis and appropriately document a robust ongoing self-assessment process. The workshop will require participants to actively engage in data analysis as it relates to the Self-Study Report required of programs undergoing accreditation review under the Standards, 5th edition. Attendees will be asked to bring their individual program data applying concepts learned at this workshop to complete a portion of the ARC-PA self-study report.

This program is not yet approved for CME credit. Conference organizers plan to apply for 18 AAPA Category 1 CME credits from the AAPA Review Panel. The total number of approved credits is yet to be determined.

We highly encourage programs to send more than one faculty member to maximize the benefit of the small group session where attendees can work on their own program’s documents.
