A Web-Based Core Curriculum to Meet Certification and Training Needs of Medical Residents - Joseph W. York, Gerald Stapleton, Leslie J. Sandlow

ABSTRACT: To meet institutional requirements for resident education in a core curriculum, the UIC College of Medicine implemented an online educational program called the UIC Online Core Curriculum. The UIC residency is composed of 1,000 physicians in training in 60 programs at 18 training sites. Its size and distribution create substantial obstacles to classroom-based delivery. An online format offered a viable alternative to meet the college’s need to present uniform content, document participation, and confirm resident achievement while addressing the residents’ need for flexibility with the Internet’s anytime-anywhere availability.
