Why did you join GAME?
Knowing about my interest in the field of medical education, one of my friends recommended that I join GAME. I have been part of GAME since 2011, and
strongly associate GAME as “the organization” that connects you with key professionals working in the CME world from whom you can dialogue with, learn global perspectives, and get updates on CME-CPD ecosystems across the globe. India being a developing country, has a need to better understand and adopt good CME practices from global trends. Being member of GAME, I immensely benefit by learning best practices from global CME leaders
and experts. My knowledge has been enhanced by attending GAME annual conferences and by participating in various education initiatives hosted
by GAME. Also the support and encouragement provided by the organization has allowed me to plan regional meetings in India; bringing us one step
closer to “bridging the gap” and establishing good CME practices in our region.
What do you want to accomplish as a Board Member?
I would like to work with an international team in research in the field of continuous professional development. I look forward to contributing to teaching and learning in courses and training conducted by GAME as well as organizing and preparing local and international conferences. My goals also include starting a podcast in medical education, building a hub of medical educators and improving leadership in my medical education career.
What do you want to accomplish as a Board Member?
I would like to see a uniform approach and equal participation from global CME-CPD stakeholders in our organization. As a board member and Chair of Regional Meetings, I strive to spread the vision and mission of GAME to global stakeholders, and I am
aiming to build a prototype to develop and deploy GAME regional conferences in different regions of the world. This concept would surely leverage our organization’s core competencies and widen its global education presence attracting more members to the organization from around the world.
What would you tell other professionals who entering our industry or who are just starting their careers?
If anyone wants to establish presence, aims to grow, learn, and excel in medical education (especially in the CME-CPD domain), GAME is the best learning and networking platform for them!
