The event is designed for physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals seeking leadership development and career advancement.

The curriculum addresses healthcare business strategies and trends, case studies, and literature on NP and PA utilization in leadership, education, research, and innovation.

Andy J. Herber, P.A.-C., and Alec J. Williams, APRN, C.N.P., D.N.P., both from Mayo Clinic, serve as course directors. Emilie Davis, P.A.-C., facilitates a panel session.

It suits NPs and PAs moving into leadership, education or research roles, since the curriculum centres on NP and PA utilization in leadership and innovation and the faculty include Mayo Clinic course directors Andy J. Herber and Alec J. Williams. Clinicians who want hands-on procedural or disease-specific updates would get less from it, and the flat $725 fee for every registrant category makes it a notable spend for those without a leadership goal, though institutions sending five or more get a discount.

Clinicians at medical leadership courses typically wear business casual, such as slacks, blouses or collared shirts and optionally a blazer, with a layer for cool hotel ballrooms.

Yes, online attendance is available. The organizer offers 5% off registration for institutions registering 5 or more online learners.
