Welcome to the Maryland Area Health Education Center (AHEC) Program website.
As you navigate through this site, you will learn about the many activities of the Maryland AHEC Program.
For more than 30 years, the Maryland AHEC Program has provided comprehensive clinical education and training for undergraduate medical students and residents, as well as for students from the other University of Maryland, Baltimore health profession schools.
AHEC activities promote increased numbers of physicians and other health care professionals, encourage the development of health care facilities, provide multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary training for health professionals, and increase capabilities for the existing program of graduate and continuing medical education and health training. Our main goal is to improve access to basic health care by linking local community groups with the resources of the University of Maryland, Baltimore through its various health professions training programs.
There are three AHEC Regional Centers in Maryland that together provide statewide coverage. By partnering with community organizations we are able to provide efficient, effective and flexible services that meet local needs.
