EDUCATION COMMITTEEThe CAL/ACEP Education Committee is a very active committee, responsible for
a great deal of CAL/ACEP activities. CAL/ACEP co-sponsors and oversees greater than
30 CME courses a year. In addition, the committee is responsible for the annual
CAL/ACEP Scientific Assembly, the Emergency Medicine in Yosemite winter
conference, and assists with the CAL/ACEP Legislative Leadership Conference.
The Scientific Assembly and Legislative Leadership Conference are free to CAL/ACEP
members.
Furthermore, the Education Committee is responsible for publishing
the chapter's monthly newsletter, entitled Lifeline, which is full of CAL/ACEP
news, educational issues including the "Clinical Corner", and updates on
legislative, regulatory, and issues affecting emergency medicine.
The Education Committee doesn't stop there. They have also produced
an ultrasound course designed exclusively for emergency physicians. They have helped
sponsor research, including UCI's Workforce study, poster sessions at the annual
scientific assembly, residency director meetings, and even published practice guidelines.
We encourage you to attend one of our high quality CAL/ACEP and
co-sponsored courses. If you would like to find out more about the committee, its
activities, or are a CAL/ACEP physician and would like to become involved, please contact
