About the Mass General Brigham Orthopedic Academy

Teaching and education have been at the core of Mass General's mission since its founding more than 200 years ago. The teaching mission aims to educate the next generation of healthcare professionals and ensure that the current health care workforce has the knowledge, clinical skills and technical skills necessary to advance patient care.

With these teaching goals in mind, in 2021 the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery discussed strategies to promote and deliver excellence in teaching to provide a stairway for onging education to all levels of staff. These plans have come to fruition with our announcement of the Orthopedic Academy under the direction of Anne Fiore, DNP, CNP.

The Academy will offer orthopedic programs to our employees and other healthcare professionals. We have created a culture of teaching and promote teaching excellence through a variety of venues, including Dr. Gus Mazzocca's simulation lab (ENABL), CME courses, conferences and online programs covering a variety of MSK essentials and concepts to improve how clinicians teach.
