Call for Proposals to Host the IAMSE Meeting

Dear Members of IAMSE,

Each year IAMSE organizes its Annual Meeting on Medical Education and Professional Development, one of its kind in the international scene of Medical Education. Participants from over 30 different countries will be visiting the meeting.

For the 2016 meeting, the IAMSE Site Selection Committee is investigating possible sites to organize the meeting. At this point, we would like to invite all IAMSE members to consider their own institution to be a possible host for the meeting. Hosting the meeting gives many advantages in establishing new connections with colleagues from other medical schools. And it also offers the host institution to show its own successes and facilities to others.

The Site Selection Committee strongly prefers IAMSE Annual Meetings to be connected with an institution in the field of medical education. Therefore your help and suggestions are invaluable!

Please consider your own institution as possible host for 2016 and discuss this with your own faculty members. More details can be found in the attached document. If you seriously consider hosting, please send us a motivated letter of intention before November 30, 2013. We do not need a full proposal yet. As soon as the Board of Directors of IAMSE has judged all letters of intention, a limited number of institutions will be asked to send in a full proposal.

Letters of intention can be send to Julie Hewett at julie@iamse.org

Please consider our offer and help IAMSE to continue the organization of the Annual Meetings in the future!

Bruce Newton
Chair of the IAMSE Site Selection Committee
