The Metro Minnesota Council on Graduate Medical Education (MMCGME) was formed to develop a community within graduate medical education in the Minneapolis and St. Paul metro area. The MMCGME Services team currently consists of five full-time employees and two part-time employees with the mission of strengthening collaboration with GME through centralized state-of-the-art information systems, critical administrative processes, core curricula, and universal policies that promote member organizations’ teaching programs.
