Objective: To demonstrate the feasibility of a regional Obstetrics and Gynecology (Ob/Gyn) Transition to Residency Course (TRC) through compliance, satisfaction, and sustainability.
Methods: We implemented a two-week, multi-institutional regional TRC (RTRC) for fourth-year medical students matched in Ob/Gyn or Family Medicine from four New England medical schools. Curriculum was developed to meet Ob/Gyn Milestone One (M1) and Core Entrustable Professional Activity (CEPA) objectives. Compliance, satisfaction, and sustainability were identified as feasibility outcomes.
Results: From 2015-2018, a total of 63 fourth-year students have participated. The number of students remained stable each year. All students attended 100% of sessions. There was an average of >9/10 in all satisfaction metrics all four years. The number of faculty members from each institution remained stable over the four years.
Conclusion: A RTRC is feasible as measured through compliance, satisfaction and sustainability.
