FIT Leadership Academy 2.0

fit leadership academy

The American College of Cardiology’s mission is to transform cardiovascular care and improve heart health for all. Achieving this requires developing physicians who not only excel clinically but also embody leadership, advocacy, mentoring, and innovation. Building on the success of the 2024 FCACC FIT Leadership Academy, this second edition transitions into a hybrid format—combining virtual accessibility with the power of live in-person engagement.

The Florida Chapter ACC Leadership Academy is designed to nurture and support skills 'beyond the clinic.’ As FITs grow in their care giving abilities they should also gain the non-clinical skills that will accelerate their career development. Join us for a 8-lecture series that presents topics that will help a career at its inception and give insights into career paths and how to acquire the skills needed to succeed.  

A certificate of completion may be requested at the completion of the series.

While the series is free to Florida members, registration is required
