The fellowship welcomes new NP and PA graduates in addition to experienced APPs desiring a change in career paths.  
 
The fellowship program combines both hands on learning and didactic learning to advance the skill-set of the fellows. Following graduation, our APP fellows are highly competitive for employment and thrive in opportunities within Atrium Health. The multi-faceted approach to learning that the fellowship possesses via clinical rotations, mentored professional activities, and evidence-based practice appropriately prepares the fellow for clinical practice with the Atrium network and beyond. We are committed to providing high quality training as well as retention of our fellows as they transition into clinical practice.
