For Health Professionals

Core Curriculum Schedule

This is an 18-month curriculum designed to repeat twice during the 3 years of residency training in Emergency Medicine.

You will find the various curriculum topics listed along with the topic coordinators and the amount of time devoted to each topic.  The curriculum presented is based on a model core curriculum content approved by the American College of Emergency Physicians and Society for Academic Emergency Medicine.  We feel that the curriculum in Emergency Medicine should be an ever-changing one to better reflect the field of practice.
