The Essentials of Emergency Medicine (EEM) conference is in May 2022, but opportunities start NOW. This conference is one of the largest live EM educational conferences in the world with over 2,000 attendees. The conference organizers are offering an amazing opportunity for EM residents anywhere in the U.S./Canada to serve as an EEM Fellow for the next EEM conference May 10-12, 2022.

EEM Education Fellowship

emDOCs and EEM have partnered to offer one mini-fellowship position to eligible residents anywhere in the U.S./Canada. Those selected to participate will receive:

• FREE conference registration
• FREE 4-night hotel stay at the Hilton Union Square, San Francisco, CA
• A travel stipend of US $500

As part of the EEM staff, fellows will get a rare opportunity to experience the behind-the-scenes work associated with developing and producing one of the world’s largest and best EM educational conferences. Fellow responsibilities will include online chat moderation, social media management, CME preparation, research projects, and more. A common theme voiced by previous EEM fellows has been the opportunity to interact directly and develop meaningful relationships with the renowned, fun, and master clinician-educators in the EEM faculty.

Quotes from prior EEM 2021 Fellows

“This conference broadened my worldview with regards to what a career in medical education can look like. Namely, it is not confined to traditional academia, program leadership, or research; it can be about creating excellent educational experiences and cultivating a community of people who are passionate about delivering the best clinical care possible.  This fellowship gives you the opportunity to work with a group of dynamic individuals who are excited about teaching and emergency medicine. I would do it again in a heartbeat.” –Kristen Ng, MD

“I absolutely loved my experience as an EEM fellow. The content itself is amazing, and I think distilling pearls in real time really helps solidify learning. Not only, being able to see the work put in by the conference organizers and behind the scenes coordination was an invaluable experience for medical education.” –Kelly Wong, MD
