Recipient Debrief
10. What year did you attend? / 2008
11. What did you learn? / The program is very ambitious, with the goal of being a transformative experience, and I believe it was successful. Rather than simply learning information which could be obtained from a book, I had experiences that continue to motivate and guide me to this day. I learned a lot about teaching skills that can be generalized to any area, not just palliative care. I learned to think more carefully about how an effective palliative care program could be designed.

13. Are you willing to be contacted RE program? / Yes
