GME Strategy
Develop a strategic plan that aligns your residency and fellowship program goals with institutional mission, priorities, and available resources. This provides your organization with a clear, actionable blueprint to guide GME development, refine existing GME infrastructure, support operational and financial decision-making, and ensure your enterprise is positioned for long-term success.
Integrated Clinical Training
Design a unified clinical training model that brings together all learner types across your organization to strengthen collaboration, improve resource utilization, and enhance educational quality. This holistic approach optimizes faculty availability, streamlines scheduling processes, and maximizes the use of clinical training sites, creating operational and financial efficiencies while ensuring every clinical pipeline is supported with the right structure, capacity, and oversight for sustained success.
Program Value
Assess the operational, financial, and strategic contributions of each GME program to clearly define its value within your institution. We benchmark performance against national best practices to help you understand how your programs support recruitment, patient satisfaction, healthcare quality, service coverage, and organizational priorities. With these insights, your organization will be better equipped to make informed decisions about resizing, relocating, or implementing operational changes that strengthen overall program performance and alignment with your GME strategy.
Education-to-Workforce Alignment Visioning
Schedule interactive workshop sessions focused on the pipeline from learning to practice. Sessions are customized to educate leadership and key stakeholders, explore strategic opportunities, and define priorities for clinical workforce growth and improvement. This provides your organization with modern insights into the ever-evolving GME landscape, shifting clinical talent pipelines, and expanding pathways to clinical excellence, helping you identify the most effective path forward for long-term program development and success.
M&A Support
Evaluate and realign your GME infrastructure during mergers and acquisitions to ensure programs, processes, and resources are integrated effectively across the combined enterprise. This enables your health system to streamline operations, eliminate duplicative workflows, and position GME as a strategic asset that strengthens organizational alignment and long-term growth.
