Working closely with the Vice Chair, Education, Residency Program Directors, Department leadership and the postgraduate administrative team, the Advisor provides leadership in Program Director development, accreditation readiness, curriculum and assessment practices, continuous quality improvement, and the implementation of shared postgraduate education priorities across the Department. The Advisor reports directly to the Vice Chair, Education. This role is described in greater detail in the accompanying Job Description.
