Curriculum & Rotations

---

This program is designed for adult learners. Therefore, the extent of your reward, or education gained, is highly dependent on your input and effort. We do not attempt to teach as much as we attempt to assist you with your learning process. Each adult learner will have unique strengths and needs. A large portion of our evaluation process is based on helping to identify these opportunities.

These training objectives provide a reasonable set of expectations for various levels of residents. They are not meant to be restrictive in the separation of responsibility. Residents who exceed the expectations for the training year are permitted to assume greater responsibility.
