iCollaborative Launches at AAMC

AAMC announces the launch of iCollaborative, a new online service that allows quick and easy sharing of innovative ideas, best practices, policies/guidelines, educational and assessment tools in development, and other valuable resources spanning the continuum of medical education, healthcare delivery, and research. 
The iCollaborative complements MedEdPORTAL as a venue for educators, providers, and researchers to post content in an open-access environment and without formal review. Users may utilize commenting features to drive discussions centered on resource development, refinement, and community-vetting. Once a resource maturates and becomes eligible for peer-review, authors are encouraged to submit to MedEdPORTAL. 
Posted content in the iCollaborative is dynamically cross-indexed with relevant resources in both Academic Medicine and MedEdPORTAL. Learn more
