Educational Development Program for Residency Program Directors and Coordinators

Pages 142-149
Published online: 15 Jun 2010

Background: Residency program directors and program coordinators have increasing demands placed on them by accrediting agencies and require educational development specifically tailored to their needs. Description: We created, piloted, and evaluated an educational development program consisting of 10 sessions spanning 1 year for program directors and a parallel set of sessions for program coordinators. Evaluation: On average, more than half the residency programs participated in the sessions. Programs improved in residency activities related to their program's handbook, interviewing, evaluations, rotation descriptions, and program evaluation. They did not improve in educational scholarly activities. Program directors and coordinators indicated that the program improved their skills, and they would recommend the program for others. Conclusions: This 10-session program improved important elements of residency education and was favorably received.
