Through faculty mentorship and dedicated interactive discussions, residents develop skills in clinical teaching, educational research, procedural teaching, and the art of giving and receiving feedback. The college also fosters academic work, mentoring residents through the process of educational research from developing a project to presenting at national conferences. Over the course of the residency, members acquire unique knowledge and skill set that provide a foundation for building a career in medical education.

This course uses peer-reviewed primary research publications in emergency medicine to help interns develop the knowledge and skills needed to become appropriate lifelong consumers of new emergency medicine literature.

Each session incorporates a brief review of clinical research methodology or statistical concepts that resident learners are likely to encounter when reading medical literature. This is then compared to online expert commentary on each of these emergency medicine topics to provide a framework for the residents to critically analyze expert commentary. This seminar serves as an introduction to patient safety concepts and terminology.

It allows the residents to interact with patient safety tools such as root cause analysis and failure modes and effects analysis and concludes with a discussion about dealing with errors as practitioners. During the second half of the academic year, PGY2 residents transition to the Resident as Teacher seminar. The first component of the seminar, occurring during the second half of the PGY2 year, is designed to provide residents an opportunity to learn key concepts of teaching in anticipation of their role at the start of the PGY3 year as a senior resident with the additional responsibilities of on-shift teaching.

The first half of the PGY3 year continues with the second component of the Resident as Teacher seminar and builds upon the content covered during the previous six months. The second half of the curriculum focuses on applying the teaching skills learned during the first component of the seminar, utilizing experiences gained as a senior resident to explore additional and more complex topics in teaching. Residents are encouraged to develop their presentation, leadership and teaching abilities through coursework and the supervision of medical students and junior residents.

Quality Improvement in Emergency Medicine serves as an introduction to quality improvement concepts and terminology. It also allows residents to workshop and discuss their individual QI projects and the role of QI in maintenance of certification.

This course prepares senior residents to competitively search for post-graduate employment. Sessions in the latter part of the year include discussions of wellness, lifelong learning and the proper assimilation to new administrative roles within a medical staff. Guest speakers include attorneys for contract review and recent graduates to discuss life after residency. This is great for use during a busy shift to quickly learn about diagnosis and case management.
