The American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) is a leading organization serving sports medicine physicians and professionals, with a longstanding commitment to high-quality medical education.
The Challenge
AOSSM needed to transform their traditional team physician education into a flexible, accessible format that would meet the demands of busy medical professionals while maintaining rigorous educational standards.
The Process
Desklight collaborated with AOSSM and PLIMSOLL to develop an interactive, multimedia course. The team worked through multiple review cycles to translate complex medical content into engaging digital modules, incorporating adult learning principles, formative assessments, and interactive elements.
Our contributions included:
- Instructional design & content development
- Adult learning strategy implementation
- Interactive module design and structure
- Review cycle and feedback management
- Cross-functional team coordination
- Module template creation for future scaling
- Documentation and delivery planning


The Solution
The resulting Team Physician Course provides comprehensive, on-demand education through 40-60 minute modules. The first module launched in December 2024, featuring seamless integration of medical expertise and instructional design that allows physicians to learn at their own pace while maintaining high educational standards. The course serves as a blueprint for future medical education modules, with additional releases planned throughout 2025.
