Advanced Skills Program
The Pediatrics Residency Program has developed an optional learning opportunity that allows residents to enhance their understanding and skills in a subset of academic areas. This longitudinal curriculum taps into residents’ areas of interest, and takes advantage of faculty expertise and enthusiasm, to offer a structured but flexible variety of experiences that include mentoring sessions, apprenticeship/observership, guided reading and discussion, as well as hands-on projects.
Residents are recognized at graduation for their enhanced studies in one of the nine skills domains:
- Behavioral and Mental Health
- Clinical Informatics
- Clinical Research
- Medical Education
- POCUS
- QI Patient Safety, and Operations
- Social Media
