ABSTRACT The Collaborative Alliance for Pancreatic Education and Research developed Pancreas Academy as a lecture-based conference with the goal of providing practical guidance in the diagnosis and management of pancreatic diseases for health care providers. Since its inception in 2017, attendance at Pancreas Academy has steadily grown every year, with trainees accounting for the largest proportion of attendees. The proportion of advanced practice providers and pediatric specialists attending the conference, although relatively low, has also risen each year. Despite the growth in the conference, this report highlights the need for continued outreach to primary care providers, nonphysicians, and nongastroenterologists to provide health care providers at all levels pragmatic and essential knowledge in caring for patients with pancreatic diseases.
