We are seeking nominations for the PGME Valedictorian Award, an honour that recognizes exceptional academic achievements, leadership qualities, and contributions to postgraduate medical education at Queen’s University and the affiliated teaching sites. The recipient of this award should be a resident who is graduating this calendar year, is well-rounded, goes above and beyond, and exhibits all roles in the CanMEDS framework. The winner of this award will represent the graduating class with a speech (5-10 minutes in length) at Convocation on Friday, June 13, 2025. If you are nominating a resident, please speak with the nominee to obtain their permission to be considered for the award as the recipient will be giving a speech at PGME Convocation.
Program leadership, residents, and administrative staff may nominate candidates. If nominated by someone other than the Program Director, the nomination will be reviewed with the Program Director to ensure the nominee meets the requirements of the award.
We welcome nominations via this form by the deadline of March 31, 2025.
