Community of Leaders Program

Our Community of Leaders program is more than just a leadership development program. It’s a transformative journey designed specifically for mid- and senior-career infectious diseases specialists. Starting in February each year, leaders gain access to the IDSA Academy learning management system; there, they engage with a series of insightful webinars, thought-provoking readings and interactive discussion boards. The journey culminates in an immersive, multiday, in-person capstone intensive each May in Arlington, VA.
