PQA Executive Fellowship (applications due December 12, 2020): The PQA Postdoctoral Executive Fellowship serves to produce the next generation of leaders in healthcare quality through a full-time, 12-month program based in the thriving Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The Executive Fellow collaborates with a wide variety of stakeholders at a national level to impact the quality of care patients receive. The program’s foundation begins with the applicant’s interests to foster development of core skillsets in project management, quality metric design and implementation, non-profit administration and association management, and healthcare quality research. Eligible candidates must hold a PharmD or MD within the United States, or plan to secure a doctoral degree within 6 months from an accredited program. Additional information, and a link to the online application, is available here. Please direct questions to Fellowship@PQAalliance.org
