Regional Educational Series

ABOUT THE REGIONAL EVENTS

WDS developed regional events to give Women’s Dermatologic Society (WDS) Members the necessary tools to encourage networking, promote mentorship, create new opportunities for volunteerism, and engage with current and prospective members on a local and regional level.

WDS has partnered with Pfizer to create a series of educational regional events. Attendees will be able to network with other professionals in their area, and meet new friends and colleagues. The events will feature a WDS member who will present on a topic of their choosing, ranging anywhere from challenging cases in skin cancer to negotiating contracts. The events are segregated into seven regions of the United States, each region led by a committee member who is a member of the Regional Networking Committee. The committee member oversees and supports the events and programs within their region.

 

REGIONAL EVENT GOALS

The goal of the regional events is to help facilitate local gatherings to provide opportunities in each region for networking and mentorship, as well as for service projects to be carried out more expeditiously. These opportunities can be events held individually or held concurrently with different cities and regions.

The regional events will also be channels for communication about the great things that are happening throughout the WDS to local members.

We hope that you consider getting involved by attending an event in your area!
