CORD Resident Academic Achievement and Faculty Teaching Awards

All nominations must be submitted electronically to cord@cordem.org by March 15, 2008.

The Resident Academic Achievement Award is intended to recognize an emergency medicine resident who has demonstrated great potential as a future academic faculty member. Qualities that will be evaluated include academic productivity, commitment to teaching, and service to the program. Each emergency medicine program director may nominate one of their senior residents for this award. Program directors must submit the nominee's curriculum vita and provide specific information regarding peer-reviewed publications and the resident's role in the publications, presentations at state or national meetings, evaluations of teaching ability by faculty, junior residents or medical students, and other objective evidence of outstanding contributions to the educational program. A copy of a publication considered to be the resident's best work should also be included.

The Faculty Teaching Award is intended to recognize the contributions of a junior faculty member to the education of emergency medicine residents. Qualities that will be evaluated include commitment to teaching, contributions to the residency program, and involvement in state or national activities that promote resident education. Each program director or department chair may nominate one faculty member for this award. The award will be limited to emergency medicine faculty with five or fewer years participation as an emergency medicine faculty member in emergency medicine residency programs. Please submit a curriculum vita and provide specific information regarding evaluations of teaching ability by residents and students, objective evidence of outstanding contributions to the educational program and descriptions of activities in support of resident education at the state and national level.

The recipients will be presented with the awards during the May 2008 CORD meeting in Washington, D.C.
