KeymasterHi Tracy
I found this document online that has info about logging procedural experiences toward the bottom of the page.
It’s from 2014, but hopefully still correct.
Hope this helps.

I spoke to David Marshall at AAOS on Saturday because one of my residents was worried about losing time, frozen computer, no answer at tech support, etc and he was kind enough to return my call.
He was very apologetic about everything that has happened. I suggested that if they change processes from year to year, an email explaining that this year will be different from last, and what the differences will be, would be helpful. I also suggested they gather a small group of seasoned PCs prior to making any changes to discuss how those changes might impact all of us on our end-he admitted that there were just some aspects this year’s changes that they didn’t realize would impact us all so much-such as not being able to log into program workshop.
We’ll see what happens, but hopefully this week will go more smoothly than Saturday did.
Have a wonderful week!

KeymasterHi,
I struggled with this as well, because I want to be sure that all the residents log on the mornings they are supposed to. When I asked AAOS about it, here’s the response I got:
Unfortunately this year only registered proctors of in person testing programs are able to log on to programworkshop and see their rosters.
Remote testers are proctored virtually so there isn’t a need for you to log on as a proctor.
If you would like to know if your residents have started or finished testing you will need to contact technical support and they can let you know if your residents have logged on to the exam or finished.
The tech I spoke to at the AAOS IT number said that there is no email address for me and that I would have to have AAOS sign me up again for the program workshop, which it sounds like they won’t do, given that proctorio is proctoring.
Does anyone see a reason for me to push the issue, if all I really need is to know that my residents signed on?
Thanks!

KeymasterHi Rachel
When we do our virtual open house I advertise it on here for other coordnators to send out to those who would be interested. We also have it posted on our website and social media accounts. Hope that is helpful.

KeymasterThanks Kim!
KeymasterThanks Laurel! This is really helpful.
KeymasterHi Kim,
Is the post conference survey anonymous? As a new person, it would just be helpful to know how the process works.
Thanks!

KeymasterHi Tonya
I run the case log report every Monday morning. The residents are required to enter in their cases weekly. If there is no case log listed in the last column they have not entered in any case logs. If a resident is over 2 weeks behind I highilght that column and the report is sent out to all residents. It helps keep them up to date with the highlights for the delinquency. If they are over 3 weeks behind I send a separate email to them with cc to the program director asking them to update their records and give them a set date deadline.
Hope that is helpful.

KeymasterHi Lashun,
We don’t charge to complete these. I’m not really sure how we would do that. In our case, being a university, whoever would be paying for it would have to be set up as a supplier, and that would be more trouble than it would be worth.
Hope this helps!

KeymasterYou only have to list faculty once for your program. You have core faculty and non-core faculty. You may need all 49 faculty listed due to case log requirements, but they don’t all have to be core faculty. Core faculty is based on the number of hours they do residency related education. Hope this is helpful.
