Development of effective infectious diseases health professions education curricula is critical to the success of our field of infectious diseases. Well-designed curricula allow the creator to remain focused on curricula goals, explore best teaching and assessment methods, and develop meaningful evaluation to determine if the intervention is successful. Well-designed and taught curricula in microbiology and infectious diseases also help recruit the best and brightest to the field. This workshop will provide attendees the opportunity to learn the core competencies for an ID Health Professions Educator and the significance of curriculum development in that role; describe the components of the Kern Model for Curriculum Design in Health Professions Education; and apply the Kern Model for Curriculum Design to the development of a health professions education project at your own institution.

The drive for the optimal guideline grading/rating of evidence framework has driven the emergence of the Grading of Recommendation Assessment, Development and Evaluation framework (GRADE). GRADE application in the production of clinical practice guidelines can result in trustworthy guideline recommendations, and as such it is imperative that persons who play a role in guideline panels have some training and orientation in the guideline development process itself, as well as an acute focus on the underpinnings of GRADE. This 4-hour workshop offers such training and orientation to attendees and particularly for those who plan to serve on guideline panels in the future.
