In February 2021, the PTAE SIG launched the Teaching & Networking Communities for Program Administration, Clinical Education and Teaching Methodology. These creative think tanks were created for participants to share resources and brainstorm creative solutions for the challenges commonly experienced by PTA educators within a virtual dynamic group setting. Members of the PTA Educator leadership team will present information about this project, and discuss our vision to continue to build connections for PTA educators through conversation and relationship building. Community participants will reflect on their experiences.
