Additional Resources for Coordinators

The ACGME provides a robust collection of resources to help coordinators do their jobs, and gain context and depth of knowledge about graduate medical education.

The Coordinator Advisory Group serves as a consultative body to the ACGME administration concerning coordinator, graduate medical education, learning environment, and accreditation matters.

• Coordinator Advisory Group web page

The Program Coordinator Handbook is a comprehensive guide for residency and fellowship coordinators of ACGME-accredited programs, developed by the 2019-2023 ACGME Coordinator Advisory Group. This handbook serves as a guide for both new and experienced program coordinators seeking to expand their knowledge of specific topics, tasks, and responsibilities associated with their role.

• Program Coordinator Handbook

This handbook aligns with the free online Learning Path in Learn at ACGME, called Program Coordinator Handbook Companion: Paving Your Path to Success.

Developed by the Coordinator Advisory Group, these customizable timelines summarize the types of tasks, events, and deadlines coordinators manage in a typical academic year, and aim to help new and veteran coordinators alike organize and prioritize their daily, weekly, and monthly projects.

The Advisory Group thanks the many coordinators who have contributed decades of collective knowledge and experience that aided in the creation of these materials.
