APDIM Residency and Fellowship Program Administration Surveys

Coming in 2027: Survey of Residency Associate Program Directors

In late summer 2027, the Alliance will survey internal medicine residency associate program directors (APDs) to better understand the nature and scope of their roles and responsibilities. The APDIM Survey and Scholarship Committee primarily will oversee content development, and AAIM Surveys staff will manage data collection. Summary results will be available in spring 2028. Further analyses of the findings will inform scholarly works and presentations about the APD position in residency training and in program leadership.

The Alliance launches an annual survey each January of GME program administrators/coordinators and other non-physician professionals involved in residency and fellowship administration. Survey development is overseen by the APDIM Program Administrators (PA) Survey and Scholarship Committee with input from the APDIM PA Advisory Council.

APDIM PA survey results are used to help members

  1. better understand their profession by collecting essential data about US internal medicine residency and fellowship program administration, and
  2. make informed decisions about professional development opportunities.

Survey results are presented at Academic Internal Medicine Week and during webinars for members. Results are also made available to members as summary reports, and results are used by the Alliance to inform comments to stakeholders.
