Building Academic Palliative Care

PDF FormatBrochure

PCLC training and mentoring to help build your academic palliative care program

Physician CME accreditation approved

Building Academic Palliative Care is led by three collaborating academic PCLCs - Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW), University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU).

The curriculum has two key components:

Training Program. Based upon the proprietary PCLC curriculum, we tailor training to meet the specific needs and interests of academic medical centers. Your faculty and key hospital staff will gain the knowledge and tools they need to:

  • Provide a palliative care program that brings crucial clinical experience to students and residents;
  • Promote faculty development in palliative care;
  • Improve the integration of the academic mission within the teaching hospital;
  • Develop and implement an action plan for clinical and academic program development to support student and resident education.

Mentoring. PCLC faculty will continue to assist you for a full year after your training through continued guidance and distance mentoring.

Two exciting training options!
