ID fellowship training is not successfully conveying the public health importance of antibiotic stewardship or the role of ID physicians as leaders of antibiotic stewardship programs. Fellows are more focused on concrete tasks related to stewardship. ID training programs and societies should consider developing robust curricula involving fellows in the operation of the stewardship program itself, not solely in antibiotic approvals, emphasizing aspects of the program such as complex problem solving that fellows find most compelling, and emphasizing the important role these programs serve in improving public health.
