- Abstract
As a result of the pandemic, the traditional in‐person didactic lecture model was adapted to a virtual learning approach. Our Laboratory Genetics and Genomics fellowship program at Nationwide Children's hospital took advantage of this opportunity to organize a multi‐institutional Fellow's Conference to educate fellows from different programs on a wide range of medical genetics topics. We describe our approach of developing this lecture series utilizing subject‐matter experts across institutions. In addition, we discuss the value of such an approach in reducing the amount of time individual institutions spend creating and providing didactic content for their small number of learners. Our experience could serve as a model for other educators and program directors, including genetic counseling program directors, to develop multi‐institutional collaborations for didactic learning.
