Shaping Careers. Changing Lives
The Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP) is a free summer enrichment program focused on improving access to information and resources for college students interested in the health professions.
COVID-19 UPDATE: In light of the current COVID-19 pandemic and the social distancing recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the SHPEP National Program Office (NPO) has decided to forgo on-site programming and is currently exploring other options. The NPO is in close contact with SHPEP staff at each of our 12 program sites and regularly receives updates about the impact of COVID-19 on their respective campus operations. If you have questions about your participation in SHPEP this summer, please email shpep@aamc.org or call (866) 587- 6337 (toll-free).
