This webinar session will discuss the key lessons learned from the development of an accelerated program guided by faculty who have considerable experience in designing and successfully implementing accelerated curricula. This session will describe the components that need to be considered when starting an accelerated program including the admissions model, curriculum development, student promotion and remediation, mentoring, partnering with residency programs, program evaluation and funding. The impact of a 3-year program in encouraging growth of primary care, reducing student debt, and enhancing the UME-to-GME continuum will also be discussed. Student outcome data including wellness and performance in residency will be presented.  This webinar will be particularly informative for institutions interested in accelerated pathway medical education.
