The American Medical Association (AMA) and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) jointly conduct the National GME Census. 

The primary data collection mechanism for the census is through the AAMC's GME Track, a secure web-based application that, among other services, includes the Program Survey and Resident Survey modules.

In May, GME program directors and institutional sponsors receive an email with details and dates of the National GME Census. The Program Survey portion becomes available for update mid-May. Programs that complete and approve their Program Survey on or before the first deadline in July have their program information uploaded to FREIDA in August.

A second FREIDA update occurs in October for those who complete their survey by the end of September. A final upload for the current academic year version of FREIDA takes place in February. Programs can make edits to their program information throughout the year.
