Presentation Description / Summary: Currently, there is a shortage of specialists in academia with a significant attrition of specialists in academia after their first academic position. Contract negotiation can help set faculty up for success and improved job satisfaction, but is not something that all residents receive mentorship and instruction regarding. Within this panel, our objective is to discuss aspects of contract negotiation, advice for negotiating a successful contract for the individual and how candidates can acquire valuable information to help them make informed negotiations. This panel consists of four large animal internal medicine diplomats with varied experience (early career tenure track, early career clinical track, established career department chair, established career former hospital director) and from different institutions. This hour will allow for open question and discussion with the audience.

Learner Outcomes: 1. Describe the different aspects of a contract that should be considered for negotiation. 2. Describe how to acquire institution specific information to help inform negotiations

Learning Objectives:

Describe aspects of an academic contract to negotiate
Describe how to negotiate aspects of an academic contract to set a junior faculty up for career success
Demonstrate confidence in successful academic contract negotiation
