A fellowship training program in sleep medicine equips physicians with a comprehensive
understanding of the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of all sleep disorders.
These programs are offered by teaching hospitals, academic medical centers, health
care systems and other institutions.
In the late 1980s the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) began accrediting
sleep medicine fellowship training programs. In 2003 the Accreditation Council for
Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) officially recognized sleep medicine as a medical
subspecialty. As a result the ACGME started accrediting sleep medicine fellowship
training programs in 2005.
