Essential Responsibilities

The ACGME Outcomes Project created a fundamental shift in the defined program coordinator position from primarily clerical to managerial role. Through the work of the APDIM PA Advisory Council, AAIM developed a residency program manager job description in 2020; the January 2023 AAIM Perspectives details the critical roles to improve recruitment and retention of successful residency managers.

The range of responsibilities outlined illustrates the diversity of the position; it cannot be a complete description of the position.
