FYI… for those who may not be a member of CORD. Dr. Balach shared this recently on the CORD forum.
The OrthoACCESS Curriculum (Ortho Acting-Intern Coordinated Clinical Education and Surgical Skills) Curriculum is a structured curriculum specifically for MS4 students applying to orthopaedic residencies.
Last year a group of orthopaedic educators developed a set of peer-reviewed PPTs / teaching modules that were shared and given once weekly at individual institutions around the country from July – October. The intention was to create a longitudinal curriculum to improve the medical student-focused educational experience of our rotators.
This year, with current restrictions on away rotations and distanced learning, we will be modifying the curriculum and making this free resource available to your programs in a few formats:
* Live webinar teaching sessions
* Recorded teaching sessions for asynchronous participation
* PPTs for you to use at your institution
Please send us an email if you would like to learn more or participate (if we’ve already been in touch, I have you on my list!)
