The IUSM Scholarly Concentrations Program is an optional four-year longitudinal program that allows students to explore interests outside the core medical curriculum. In
two years, 17 concentrations were developed statewide and more than 220 students enrolled. As a part of developing a sustainable educational program, a Plan-Do-Check-Act improvement cycle is being used. This workshop will feature examples of the use of the Plan-Do-Check-Act improvement cycle during the launch and pilot a large, novel educational program that is “good enough” and builds toward sustainability and excellence while responding to large-scale systematic changes. Participants in the workshop will apply these principles to their own educational programs
