Mentoring Program

The PAAA, in conjunction with our Pennsylvania Allergy Education Research Fund (PAERF) Committee, is excited to announce an expansion of our long-standing Mentor-Mentee Program. This year, all in training/early career annual meeting attendees will be paired with a current active PAAA member.

​

Our mentorship program is geared to enhance the PAAA Annual Meeting experience for trainees and veteran practitioners alike and provide an opportunity to continue the relationship throughout the year.

​

All mentors and mentees who are registered for the PAAA Annual meeting will meet during the In-Training Networking Reception to be held on Friday, June 20, 2025 at 7:00 pm. This goal of this reception is to connect FITs and early career physicians with our esteemed faculty and seasoned leadership and foster a relationship of growth and development. 

​

If you are unable to attend the PAAA Annual Meeting but would like to participate in the Mentoring Program, contact PAAA Staff at paaa@paallergy.org.
