Evaluating Intersite Consistency Across 11 Geographically Distinct Pediatric Clerkship Training Sites: Providing Assurance That Educational Comparability Is Possible

CONCLUSIONS: Over the ensuing 5-year period after a curriculum overhaul to an 18-month, integrated module pre-clerkship curriculum, we found that student pediatric clerkship performance in clinical knowledge and skills did not differ significantly across 11 varied geographic teaching sites when controlling for students' pre-clerkship achievement. Specialty-specific curriculum resources, faculty development tools, and assessment of learning objectives may provide a framework for maintaining intersite consistency when faced with an expanding network of teaching facilities and faculty.PMID:37201493 | DOI:10.1093/milmed/usad044
