The Association of Midwifery Educators (AME) is a group of member schools, educators and administrators who have come together with a common goal of building a robust network of support and resources for direct-entry midwifery education. We strive to provide solutions and offer recommendations to educators, to develop midwifery curriculum and enhance administrative best practices.
AME is dedicated to the art and science of midwifery education and ensuring that educators have access to the connections, collaborations and coordinated opportunities they need to succeed in the work of teaching, nurturing and mentoring midwives for the future. At the same time we want to help build strong schools by connecting school administrators who are faced with unique challenges and workloads typically with very limited resources.
The Association of Midwifery Educators (AME) is a not-for-profit 501c6 organization.

What do we need to be thinking about and doing together to fulfill this promise and potential to advance professional midwifery in the United States? Save the Date: March 16-19, 2012.
