As PA education continues to grow and evolve, PAEA wants to meet its members where they are. PAEA is launching Regional Education Meetings (REMs) as a new educational offering to provide space for you to learn, present, network, and collaborate with others in your region.
Pilot Regional Education Meetings & Workshops
Our first-ever REM & Workshops will be in the Midwest region, followed by the South. We plan to expand these offerings until we are hosting an REM in each of the US’s four geographic regions, adding events in the Northeast and West.
Key Dates:
- Early Bird Registration Deadline: February 19, 2025
- Cancellation Deadline: March 4, 2025
- Registration Deadline: March 4, 2025
Call for 2026 Regional Education Meeting Host Sites
We are seeking institutional partners in the Midwest, Northeast, and South regions to host a 2026 REM. The hosting program will benefit in several ways:
- Faculty Development – Get access to significant professional development and continuing education without the cost of travel.
- Visibility and Reputation – Elevate your program’s visibility and reputation within the PA education and academic medicine community.
- Program Networking – Connect your PA faculty and staff with their colleagues from other institutions in the region.
- Community Engagement – Showcase your facilities, expertise, and contributions to the community, and build relationships that can lead to future collaboration.
- Promotion of Research and Innovation – Promote research and innovation happening at your institution.
PAEA will handle logistics, including registration and educational programming, while host institutions provide suggestions and local guidance. For more information on submitting a proposal, view our submission guide.
