Development of Resident Teaching Skills

Residents benefit from additional instruction on how to best teach students. This is addressed at the College of Medicine – Tucson in several different ways:

  • In-person sessions sponsored by the College of Medicine – Tucson onsite or elsewhere at other teaching sites.
  • Sessions that exist as part of their residency program curriculum. Residency programs submit this information annually, so that the college can assure that all residents are receiving training.
  • College of Medicine – Tucson web-based residents as educators training is provided each year during onboarding and when residents/fellows advance each year.
