Didactics
Emphasis on Adult Learners
We employ a flipped classroom model for didactic training. Conference is held every Wednesday 8 AM to Noon.
Residents research and present on core EM topics throughout the year. Faculty mentors are assigned to help formulate and advise on topics of interest.
​
Faculty and upper-level residents also lead oral board style cases for continued practice throughout the three years of residency.
​
ROSH Review is utilized to assist in core EM topic training, knowledge acquisition, and test taking skill development.
​
Simulation takes place locally at LG Medical Center and VCOM Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine Simulation Center.

In-Service practice written board examination is provided to all residents annually.
​
Our goal is to provide residents with a multimodal approach to Emergency Medicine academic training, and to ensure oral and written board examination passage.
