Academy

 

“The primary purpose of the Academy,” according to Dr. Vince Hetherington, Academy Chairman, “is the enhancement of podiatric medical education worldwide. The Academy will do all it can to strengthen podiatric education whether in countries with a large number of podiatrists or in those with smaller numbers.

It is our hope that the Academy will stimulate growth in podiatric programs while strengthening the teaching skills of faculty worldwide.”
