IP Inservice exam survey Reviewed by Hans
Inservice exam ( report all data): Review of scores of Fellows with comparisons of IP Boot camp inservice testing to end of year testing 2013
Recommendation to better “know” our programs, program directors and IP fellows to target needs to be met: Get data from NRMP in terms of number of programs in match, regions, gender, other programs
Based on Inservice exam and service the following needs were identified:
Identified needs:
Reading list / curriculum
Didactic lectures
Recommended text books
Collaboration with other specialities:
Monitor online access to confirm fellows are taking these
Journal club from articles from reading list
Fellows from each program develop a board review document
Online staff log in among AIPPD faculty to diversify the lecture
Online courses –monthly conference video and uplinked with standardized lectures
Task fellows at Boot Camp in the beginning of the academic year in terms of reading list
Educate them together Boot Camp, ACCP, and ATS ( small IP fellows meetings to incorporate additional education)
Select Fellows representative ( pick one fellow from each of the subcommittess 1 year term)
Research must be added as part of the 2010 lead paper on breadth
How to subdivide IP fellows time
Pull all prior surveys
1 and 2 yr fellows
Have each program reflect on 2010 paper to see what areas can / need improvement
Time limits in allocating fellows time
Fellows Salary / vacation time / work ours/ meeting participation

Future role of Industry support : future consideration of education grant to assist with expenses.
Relationship between the AABIP and AIPPD: Just as AABIP focuses on eligibility for the board exam and certification—-the AIPPD’s primary focus should be on the accreditation for fellowship.
