Abstract
Ambulatory pediatric, adolescent medicine, and child development fellowship programs listed in the Ambulatory Pediatric Association (APA) newsletter were surveyed to gather information about the programs for prospective fellows, to develop a descriptive summary, and to determine the extent to which programs adhere to APA guidelines. Number and types of positions offered, criteria for admission to programs, program educational objectives and activities, and career choice of graduates were examined for the 73 programs offering 132 fellowship positions in 1976 to 1977. In general, APA guidelines were followed. Programs emphasized patient care experience in contrast to health care administration, research, and teaching.
