The Society for Medical Education (Gesellschaft für Medizinische Ausbildung, GMA) is a nonprofit professional association dedicated to improving medical education across disciplines. It brings together members to exchange ideas and experience, advance research, and support the development of teaching and training. Its network includes committees and groups focused on areas such as digital learning, patient safety, communication, practical skills, interprofessional education, assessment, primary care, and veterinary and dental education.

GMA shares current research through its publication, the GMS Journal for Medical Education, and hosts an annual professional conference at changing locations, alongside committee meetings, workshops, and other events. The association also provides members with access to an online learning platform and publishes position papers, learning objectives, and guidance on scholarly publishing and peer review. Through its public statements, GMA contributes to discussions about medical education policy, including curriculum reform, competency-based learning, and the preparation of future physicians for changing professional needs. The organization welcomes new members and offers opportunities to participate in its specialist networks and activities.
