Medical education research and engagement
The ultimate goal of medical education research is to continuously improve medical education to enhance health professionals' capabilities to better the health of individuals and populations.
Since 2011, the AO Education Institute (AO EI) has been deeply involved in medical education research projects, published in leading journals in the field, and presented at major medical educational conferences. In addition, the AO is actively engaged with prominent associations and societies for continuing professional development (CPD) to share best practices and keep moving forward.
Our engagement
The AO collaborates with leading organizations to advance medical education research, share best practices, and drive continuous improvement in medical education. Since 2010, we have actively contributed to these efforts by serving on steering committees, leading meetings, and presenting at symposia, workshops, poster sessions, webinars, and conferences.
