MedBiquitous Community Connection: MedBiquitous Orientation - September 14

Are you interested in learning more about MedBiquitous? Join us for our MedBiquitous orientation on September 14, where we will share an overview of the MedBiquitous program, its history, and the vision for the future being created by the Director, Steering Committee, and the community. 

MedBiquitous, the data standards program of the AAMC, establishes a common language, understood by both people and machines, that enables data and resource-sharing across organizations in health professions education and credentialing. This common language creates an infrastructure that supports education administration, quality improvement, research, and lifelong learning. 

Dr. Johmarx Patton, Director of MedBiquitous, will provide a structured walkthrough of the basics of MedBiquitous during this presentation. There will be ample time for questions and answers so that members of the health professions education and credentialing community at large can learn more about what MedBiquitous can do for them and their organization, as well as how they can contribute to MedBiquitous standards development.


“MedBiquitous Community Connection” is a series of free one-hour webinars featuring health professions educators and technology innovators from around the globe. “MedBiquitous Community Connection” provides a forum for community experts to share how digital technologies are promoting improvement and better outcomes across the continuum of health professions education. A portion of each webinar will reserve time for a brief Q&A session, allowing attendees the opportunity to dialogue with guest speakers.
