The Schooler Family Foundation Adult Congenital Heart Disease Fellowship Program at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and The Ohio State University is a fully funded 24 month ACHD training program for those interested in a cardiovascular career specializing in the care of adults with congenital heart disease.

Cardiovascular fellows completing either internal medicine or pediatric cardiology are eligible to apply. The training program is specifically designed to follow and meet proposed guidelines for subspecialty ACHD training. The Schooler Fellow will train within the Heart Center at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and The Ohio State University as part of the Columbus Ohio Adult Congenital Heart Disease (COACH) Program. The COACH program medical staff includes 3 full time ACHD trained attendings, 3 APNs, 5 RNs, 3 office staff, 1 research coordinator and 2-4 IM/PEDS ACHD fellows. The COACH program provides world class, state of the art care for the ACHD patient in interventional procedures, surgical therapy, electrophysiology, advanced cardiac imaging with cardiac MRI/CT, and heart failure/transplant.

The Schooler Fellow will be expected to perform meaningful ACHD research as part of the ACHD research team.
