E-learning : Training Attendings to objectively assess Pediatric Urology Residents' performance of open surgery

Q2272-274Urology Residency training programs do not currently have a tool with which to provide fair and objective assessments of surgery performed by Residents. The availability of such a tool would benefit the training process. This is because if assessments of Resident performances were objective, then assessments made by different Attendings could be combined. Because it is believed that such a tool would advance the ability of the Urology specialty to train Residents to perform surgery, an interactive e-learning platform was developed to train Attendings to objectively assess and inform Residents about how their performances would be assessed
