The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Consortium of Neurology Clerkship Directors provides a forum for the exchange of views on educational matters related to the teaching of clinical neurology to medical students.

The AAN provides information to:

• Help maintain an up-to-date record of basic information concerning neurology clerkships at all American medical schools

• Foster development of educational materials

• Encourage the development of a recommended core curriculum and other consensus policies regarding the teaching of clinical neurology to medical students

• Promote the importance of education as an academic activity

In addition, the AAN Consortium of Clerkship Directors coordinates activities with the Undergraduate Education Subcommittee of the AAN Education Committee and represents neurology clerkships in ACE and the AAMC Council on Academic Societies.
