Now is the time to reserve your spot for the next cohort of the ISMA Advocacy Leadership Training Program!

ISMA took feedback from recent graduates and expanded the curriculum to include asynchronous learning opportunities to allow more flexibility and optional assignments to increase depth of knowledge around health care policy.

This dynamic hybrid initiative is designed to cultivate and enhance the skills of our most engaged members, combining online learning with in-person sessions to provide a flexible yet rigorous training experience.
 
Topics that will be covered include: how policy is made in Indiana, the anatomy of the federal and state legislatures, how to track bills, how to write a resolution for the ISMA House of Delegates, self-awareness and self-management when meeting with legislators, and how to prepare for meetings with policymakers.

The 2026-2027 hybrid program will run from November through June and will consist of recorded, Zoom and in-person sessions led by ISMA’s Government Relations team and other subject-matter experts. Participants will also attend Physician Advocacy Day at the Statehouse in February. 

ALL ISMA members are eligible to participate in the program. The cost is $250, and registration is open until Oct. 16 at 11:59 p.m. ET.  The program has been accredited for up to 10.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™.
