Why PALLA?
The PALLA Fellowship offers a distinctive chance to deepen my knowledge and expertise in PA education. Learning from leaders in research, grants, and curriculum development is an exciting prospect. What I value most is the opportunity to collaborate with fellow PA educators across Maryland to strengthen and enrich the educational experience for both prospective and current students.
