The education committee oversees the American Thoracic Society (ATS) educational programs and provides an educational consulting service to assist ATS members in the development of educational opportunities both at and outside the International Conference.

This committee also partners with other educational groups to develop new learning formats for the ATS and timely “rapid response” documents after events such as natural disasters on an as-needed basis. The committee also endeavors to study the outcomes of the many educational offerings of the ATS.
