Professionalism is an attribute and competency demanded of all physicians, and forms a vital component of the medical education programs at the Florida International University Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine. The Professionalism Advocacy Program of the HWCOM is designed to enhance the professional attitudes and behaviors of members of the learning community. It also provides opportunities to recognize professional excellence.

The Professionalism Advocacy Reporting System is an information gathering database provided to continuously improve the professionalism of the Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine's academic community and future physicians. The system provides for submission of commendations. Submit the Professionalism Commendation Form (PCF) when it is felt that a member of the community has demonstrated exemplary professional behavior.

If you feel a member of the community has demonstrated unprofessional or inappropriate behavior, please report the matter using the Incident Reporting Form.
