I am currently in a nurse anesthesia program. I won't be done for awhile, but I was wondering if anyone knows of any type of post-graduate education that might be like the equivalent of a fellowship for MDAs? I have looked at gaswork.com and I see a little box for fellowships on the CRNA site, but there are never any listed. ...do any exist? Just wondering.
I do not know of any "fellowship" type programs, but I believe Virginia Commonwealth offers a PhD in anesthesia.

As a student you should have full access to aana.com. Check there. I know programs exist in pain management.
some places offer extra months of focused clinical exposure - i know of 2 centers that provide 6 months of peds exposure.... if you want to be at the level of a fellowship trained MDA i can only suggest the following: 1) med school 2) anesthesia residency 3) post-anesthesia residency fellowship...

American Academy of Pain Management, a multi-disciplinary group.

Whatever. I can only suggest that you frequent a physician bulletin board.
NCgirl and Sones, Since I am starting to talk to potential employers and am considering a couple of pediatric specialty hospitals, I will PM you with information about post-grad pedi training once I get more concrete information.
