Resident/Fellow Survey 2008
(for residents only) In 2003 the ACGME introduced a web-based survey of all residents/fellows in accredited programs with 4 or more residents/fellows. This is an additional method to monitor their clinical education and to provide early warning of potential non compliance with ACGME accreditation standards. The survey was piloted during 2003 and fully implemented in January 2004 to one-third of all eligible programs. After 3 years of data collection, the survey design and implementation strategy were reassessed. A revised resident/fellow survey was developed based on feedback from ACGME constituents. Currently, all core specialty programs and subspecialty programs with 4 or more residents/fellows are surveyed every other year between January and May. Aggregate reports will be made available to programs with 4 or more residents if a 70% response rate is reached. This survey is not administered in conjunction with a program's site visit, although the information gathered will be used at the time of the program's site visit. The ACGME will notify programs directly when their participation is required. This notification will include detailed information on accessing the survey and a deadline for completion. Residents/fellows will have 4 weeks in which to complete the survey. What do programs need to do?
