As the fall semester approaches, I would like to share our post-graduate fellowship opportunities with you and your students. This year we are excited to announce that we will be offering two administrative fellowship programs designed to provide developmental experiences in an educational environment that will contribute to your students’ growth as healthcare professionals. The programs are open to graduates from a variety of degree programs that provide a foundation in healthcare administration (e.g. MHA, MHSA, MBA, MPH, MPA).
The David Joseph Administrative Fellowship is a one-year training program focusing on hospital operations. The first nine months of the fellowship will be dedicated to a set of planned rotations that will provide exposure to, and project work in, six different divisions of the health network. The rotation divisions have been thoughtfully selected to ensure optimal value to post-graduate professionals. The project work in each rotation will be selected based on the needs of the organization and the skill-development needs of the fellow. The final three months of the program is intended to provide at least one opportunity to serve in an interim leadership role. The interim role will be selected from the roles available with special attention to the fellow’s interests and skill set. The interim leadership experience provides an opportunity to gain experience directly pertaining to the fellow’s goals and desired career path.
The Lehigh Valley Physician Group Administrative Fellowship is a one-year training program focusing on medical group operations. The fellow will gain an in-depth understanding of physician practice management and hands-on experience with a variety of projects through a series of focused rotations. The fellow will have exposure to network initiatives and participate in high-level strategic planning to ensure a well-rounded experience. Additionally, there will be opportunities to partake in leadership activities and meetings that encourage professional growth.
Lehigh Valley Health Network is a member of NCAF and will be accepting applications through NAFCAS . For more information regarding program details and application requirements, please refer to the attached brochure or visit our website.

Thank you,
