Custom Curriculum Now Available

AccessEmergency Medicine’s Custom Curriculum, a cutting-edge functionality that enables emergency medicine (EM) program directors to create, track, and report usage of resident rotations online. With Custom Curriculum, medical programs can build a resource that matches their specific needs – mapping AccessEmergency Medicine content and capabilities to their educational structure.

AccessEmergency Medicine’s Custom Curriculum provides a powerful and intuitive online interface for program directors to manage their training rotations. By replicating their existing rotation structure online, program directors can:
• Assign reference content, videos, and animations
• Mandate board review tests and customize the passing grade
• Schedule grand rounds, lectures, or other offline activities
• Report usage by resident, rotation, or timeframe
• Link out to primary references or other web-based resources

Through its Shared Library functionality, EM program directors can choose to submit their curricula to a repository that enables other institutions to not only view – but also potentially adopt and modify – their curricular approach.
For emergency medicine residents, AccessEmergency Medicine’s Custom
Curriculum provides a coherent interface for explicitly tracking educational progress. For a given rotation, each resident knows exactly what is expected and monitors his or her own progress toward achieving that goal.
