Extended Follow-Up

Maintenance and Accountability Seminars (MAS-12)

Back

How can you prevent what you’ve learned from fading away? How do you deal with the feeling of isolation when you are involved in the disciplinary process? How do you continue the process of remediation that began during your course? Our extended follow-up program, Maintenance and Accountability Seminars (MAS-12), can address all these questions and more. These weekly, faculty-led teleconference seminars deepen participants’ understanding, elevate their accountability through revisiting their Personalized Protection Plans, and engage them in a multi-disciplinary community of peer review and support. 

Note: Prerequisite of completion of prior live PBI course or comparable course through another remedial education provider.

  • "My favorite part of my entire PBI curriculum was that it was a safe, respectful, and non-judgemental space. I felt supported and validated, which I definitely did not expect in this context- especially as a student. The other participants and I are facing very different situations, but what they all have in common is profound isolation. The course alleviated some of this isolation for me by validating my experiences with unbiased perspectives, providing support and valuable insights/advice that I otherwise did not have access to. "

  • "I believe the MAS sessions are really quite essential to the overall comprehensiveness of the individual courses. I did not realize this at the time of the course and initially felt that MAS was excessive. However, once I started participating I realized their essential importance to the overall program. "

  • "I gained more objective tools to help guide me through the period of stress and turmoil. By focusing on the objective data, I was able to complete my tasks and implement changes to improve my professional and personal work environment. Overall, by staying objective, I was able to refocus my time and energy to obtain a better quality of life."

    - Maintenance and Accountability Course Graduate
  • "This course was by far the best learning I have had in years. I felt heard, supported, and held accountable. I gained the courage to accept an appointment as an ethics chair - my violation being 11 years ago - life gets better. PBI was life-changing."
