The path to trauma program administration is often through the clinical ladder which rarely prepares the manager for the tasks of financing and operating a trauma center. To assure managers are successful, whatever their background, TCAA provides comprehensive Management and Leadership courses twice a year and audio-web courses on a regular basis.
The TCAA has added a course to educate Trauma Medical Directors about the business and leadership skills needed in their challenging administrative role. The Trauma Medical Director course is limited to a small number of participants to facilitate discussion and problem solving. The course is held in conjunction with the Annual Leadership Course.
Members enjoy a substantial discount to TCAA conferences and receive audiotapes of the Annual Management Conference each year. Members also enjoy exclusive access to the quarterly Audio Web Conferences.
