Program Administrators
Association of Program Administrators in Vascular Surgery (APAVS)
The APAVS is a forum for the interchange of ideas and information related to the education of vascular surgery fellows and integrated vascular residents. APAVS members assist in the identification and solution of educational and administrative problems that may arise in the conduct of vascular surgery residency and fellowship programs and serve as the advocate of resident education in the various professional agencies, boards, councils and committees that influence the specialty of Vascular Surgery.

The APAVS welcomes all vascular surgery coordinators, administrators, program managers and educators as members of the organization. Your Society membership is automatically activated, which includes program roster access, the Administrator community in SVSConnect, registration to the Annual Meeting, and more!
