@APDSurgery Yes. Absolutely. Although your options might be severely limited in the most competitive of subspecialties if you choose to go that route - Peds Surg and Surg Onc in particular.

@APDSurgery No 1 answer. 1) Look at current makeup of program. 2) Look at leadership. 3) Look at website - program and institution. I'm sure there are others. Some programs have recently committed to diversity and are still trying to recruit URM applicants, improving culture.

Let's get started. Q1. What are some ways applicants can assess the inclusion/cultural sensitivity of a program? #APDSchat

This is the annual time of year I remind myself and others that I did not get honors in surgery and I was not AOA.

@kipsDS2010 Agree it may be overstated in our study & Mattar study, etc. With that said, I think we need to build an educational system such that graduating someone who is not fully prepared is a "never event" - much like we build hospital systems to prevent things that should never happen.

@kipsDS2010 Not controversial. We only ask about confidence/self efficacy because we don't have good measurements of competence. I just think there is room for improvement. Ultimate goal is competence AND self efficacy. In a dream world, ALL graduates KNOW and they KNOW THAT THEY KNOW.

@RASACS In the EPA model, the goal is to be signed off by 3 trained faculty as "practice ready" in the management of the given disease(s). I'm hopeful that will force faculty to allow residents to safely prove their full capabilities - and will give residents self-efficacy. We'll see.

How does competency-based training fit into this concept of fostering self-efficacy and confidence? Join in on the #RASJACS Journal Club now!

@RASACS However, I think it only requires more intentional training and simulation to get us back to a more autonomous training field while also having great outcomes.

@schmiedsMD @wyatt_tg @RASACS @deRouletMD @DrAdora_DO Simulation will most enhance Surg Ed when we use it for high stakes but relatively rare events. Deciding to do a Cric and doing it. Making the decision to fenestrate a gallbladder and doing it, etc. It's best if it is tied to decision-making, not just technical challenges.
