Advanced Antimicrobial Stewardship Curriculum for Faculty

The IDSA Advanced Antimicrobial Stewardship (AS) curriculum provides fellows or stewards-in-training with the knowledge and skills to become leaders in antimicrobial stewardship and is intended for those who are considering or actively pursuing a career in antimicrobial stewardship. It builds upon the IDSA CORE AS Curriculum, which provides fellows with a broad foundation in antimicrobial stewardship.

As with the CORE curriculum, the Advanced curriculum is designed for use at the fellow’s home institution and builds on local AS resources. The content is organized into 5 main sections and includes eLearning modules, workbooks, and application activities.

Target Audience

Program Directors, Antimicrobial Stewardship Faculty Champions, and additional Faculty responsible for leading and implementing the Advanced AS Curriculum.
