Education and Training

Education and Training forms a key component of the PRDC, predominately in collaboration with the Coordinated Pediatric Pathway Planning Office (C3PO). This broad initiative intervenes in various stages of the Physician-Scientist career (from undergraduates to Early Career Researchers) to increase interest in pediatrics and to prepare scholars for the rigorous research environment they are entering. Created specifically to address the identified problem of the loss of potential physician-scientists, C3PO focuses on scholars that benefit from training programs like the R38, T32, K12, and KL2, and offers a variety of curriculum and evaluation resources and support services. The PRDC also offers a wide-variety of workshops, career development events, and mentor training.

The PRDC offers several types of Education and Training Services, each of which are described in more detail here. Services include:

  • One-on-one writing consultations for DOP Early Stage Investigators
  • Education-related workshops and events
  • Educational material creation
  • Curriculum development consultations for training grants
