The PGY column indicates the Post-Graduate Year in which the corresponding module should be taken.  ALL modules for a given House Officer’s PGY must be completed before the House Officer will be allowed to graduate or advance to the next year.  Additionally, House Officers in any PGY other than 1 will be required to complete all modules up to and including the modules for their current PGY (a HO2 must complete all 1 and 2 modules, and fellows must complete all modules).

The modules have been designed to be each completed in approximately 5 to 10 minutes.  They consist of a presentation of several slides (attached to the module in PDF format), in addition to a short (1 to 5 question) test.  The presentation should be viewed before taking the test.  In the event that a House Officer does not score at least 80% on any assigned module, that module must be retaken until at least 80% is achieved. 

Residency and Fellowship Program Coordinators are able to run reports indicating the progress of the program’s House Officers by clicking here.
