The 2022 ACGME Annual Educational Conference offers outstanding educational and networking opportunities. The conference fee also includes several events and activities that give you an opportunity to connect with colleagues in a relaxing and engaging atmosphere.

Though the 2022 Annual Educational Conference will be held in a virtual environment, consistent with the conference theme of Meaning in Medicine: Rebuilding Connections, engaging and valuable networking opportunities are planned to provide participants with ways to meet new colleagues and reconnect with longstanding friends.

As the extraordinary challenges continue this year, the importance of staying connected—to family and friends, to immediate colleagues, to the osteopathic community, and to the graduate medical education (GME) community at large—has never been more critical.
