We’ve been back in the office since May 2020. We were given some flexibility for a couple of weeks in December when the schools shut down again.

I’m having the same issue – the website is blocked/not secure. I’ve looped in my IT dept to help, but I don’t know if it’s an issue on the AAOS side, or mine.

Courtney said it well, we also have institutional constraints.
The option to send Gift Certificates and/or swag in place of interview social events is off the table.

We will send informational links and provide virtual open houses.
Wishing everyone the best as we approach October 21st.

Our residents also use our institutional DEA.

Rebecca,
This is the evaluation we use for our residents. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sorry – I misread the question. I think this may have been addressed in the OITE WebEx.

Exams@aaos.org email (dated July 15, 2020) mentioned that the Resident Roster initial review will be in early August. I am about to check the site.

Final Resident Roster Review – late September.

Can we change how we are going to do the test if they don’t allow 2 days?? This information would have been great to have when they asked us how we were going to take the test.

[ARCOS]

Will this session be recorded for those unable to attend?

Thank you,
Jessica

Starla,

At Brown we are planning on using Thalamus, our GME Department is looking at having all residency programs use it. I had a demo this morning with Jason Reminick, the CEO & Founder, I was very impressed with everything our program will be able to do with this system including inviting applicants, scheduling, scoring, inputting information from ERAS, interviewing, and it creates your rank list. Really seems too good to be true but the programs that use it, that I have spoken to, all raved about it.

If anyone is looking for a program to use I would recommend you request a demo by going to their website or by emailing Jason directly at jason.reminick@thalamusgme.com.

Thank you Vanessa. I have viewed the demo and it looks like it will be just what we need for interviews this year. I recommend all members look into Thalamus as we will all be facing virtual interviews this year.

[ARCOS]

We are in the early stages of figuring out what type of virtual rotation to offer to medical students.

[ARCOS]

Thank you Beth and Keyonna! It’s always very helpful to get a variety of samples and to see what other program are using.

[ARCOS]

Thank you Lucy – very helpful!

[ARCOS]

Thank you all for the feedback.
