Abstract

The use of different coaching models can provide an effective environment for skill learning. The Anatomical Donor Stewardship (ADS) Coaching subcommittee, within the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS), developed and held an inaugural Coaching workshop for human anatomical dissection for HAPS members at the 2025 HAPS Annual Conference in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This article describes the workshop, as well as impact statements from the coaches. Based on the reception of this model, future coaching workshops should be developed to meet the needs of anatomists at all levels, with support from professional societies.
