The ASMBS Leadership Academy is your gateway to complete practice readiness. Designed specifically for fellows and early-career surgeons, this dual-impact program bridges the gap between surgical training and real-world success. Start your journey with flexible, pre-program LMS microlearnings focused on core leadership development, then dive into an immersive, two-day in-person experience. Day 1 kicks off with a focused 3-hour practice-readiness launch paired with an evening of high-value networking and dinner. Day 2 delivers a powerful, 9-hour hands-on cohort experience dissecting contract negotiation, coding and coverage, technology adoption, quality outcomes, referral pathways, and executive communication. Whether you are a surgeon leveling up your career, a program director equipping your fellows, an institution looking for turnkey workforce readiness, or an industry partner investing in surgical excellence—this is where the business of metabolic and bariatric surgery gets mastered.
ASMBS will also host the ASMBS Weekend Meeting 2026, following the ASMBS Leadership Academy 2026, on November 5-6, with reduced registration fees for fellows.
