Leadership Academy 2015

All three of the Society of Hospital Medicine (SHM) Leadership Academy courses will be offered in the Fall of 2015. This expanded meeting will provide attendees with the chance to network with a greater number of colleagues, and create opportunities for enhanced programming.

The three courses offered are:
