We are looking for volunteers to join SPUC’s Education Committee to help us continue to produce timely, evidence-based education to our SPUC member group. This is a great opportunity for someone who has a passion for continuing medical education and wants to be more involved in the Society.
- Attending monthly education committee meetings which involve reviewing post-webinar survey feedback, planning future content and troubleshooting webinar related issues that may have arisen between meetings.
- SPUC has provided our committee with a fantastic webinar portal that makes the webinar production process as streamlined and automated as possible. The committee will fully support every new committee member as they learn this process.
- Recruiting at least two speakers and serving as moderator for their webinars every 6 months. This spreads the work of producing the webinars across the whole committee and makes the workload very manageable. Remember, speakers do not have to be subspecialist pediatricians doing Grand Rounds-style presentations. They can also be one of your own Urgent Care colleagues presenting some interesting cases, a QI project, or newly developed UC guidelines. Journal clubs are also fair game. We all have amazing and unique things happening at our institutions, and this is a fantastic opportunity to learn from one another as colleagues!
Moderator responsibilities include:
- Adding your speaker(s) to the webinar schedule for the agreed upon date
- Requesting needed speaker information, slides, quiz questions/answers and conflict of interest disclosure and uploading them to the portal three weeks before the webinar date
- Scheduling a brief practice session with your speaker, if needed
- Moderating the webinar (introducing the speaker and managing the Q/A)
- Releasing the post-webinar survey
- Sending a post-webinar thank you note
- Sharing post-webinar feedback with your speaker via email
If you are interested, please contact Amy Romashko (aromashko@chw.org).
