The CRA LEAdership Program (LEAP) is a mentorship program designed for rheumatologists at an early career stage who are likely to become leaders in research, education, and/or advocacy in Canada.
This program seeks to identify and promote leadership in rheumatologists early in their career (within 5 years post fellowship in rheumatology or pediatric rheumatology). It is comprised of a variety of initiatives identified via a needs assessment and in collaboration with Canadian mentors and expert advisors. It provides aspiring rheumatologists with the opportunity to enhance their professional and leadership development skills and is designed for future leaders in academic and community practice.
