Description
This poster will highlight how an alumni group for former AUCD trainees can facilitate leadership development and support network engagement among trainees after graduation and into their professional careers. An alumni group has the potential to become a strong community for both emerging and established leaders, creating unique opportunities for leadership, peer-to-peer learning, information dissemination, and ongoing dialogue about the value of interdisciplinary collaboration across training, practice, research, and policy.Back to Session: Poster Session: Training Trainees
