Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery Fellowship Match

The Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgery Fellowship Match (POSM) was established in 2009. Its goal is to coordinate fellowship appointments, thus relieving the pressure of uncoordinated appointments and forced early choices. The participating programs will not make any appointments until the match has been completed.

Sponsorship

The Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA) sponsors the matching process and provides a forum for the discussion of match-related issues. The Matching office does not in any way sponsor or approve any of the participating programs. The function of the Matching Program is strictly limited to processing of the match. Listing or not listing of any program in the directory does not imply any form of approval, disapproval or endorsement. The decision to be listed or not rests solely with each individual Program Director.
