Abstract
The Review Commission on the Education of the Physician Assistant, Inc. (ARC‐PA), the body that accredits physician assistant (PA) programs in the United States, requires that all entry‐level PA programs instruct their students in Anatomy. The commission does not dictate, however, how programs provide that instruction.Students generally complete a didactic phase in physician assistant education that spans 12–15 months. Subsequent to the didactic phase of the program, students complete a clinical phase, in which they apply the principles of medicine they learned during the didactic phase to patient management encounters.This session will review the most popular ways that programs provide Anatomy instruction to their students, and what components of Anatomy instruction are most important to program directors in relation to curriculum mapping and learning outcomes for their programs.
