PRESENT Residency Education Structured Curriculum 2007-2008

John Steinberg, DPM Editor, PRESENT Courseware Welcome to the 2007-2008 Academic Year. PRESENT Residency Education Courseware is proud to provide your program with this high quality learning tool. This year’s PRESENT Curriculum includes many new and timely topics for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year residents. You will note that each month also features a ‘Team Viewing’ lecture which has been selected as a key assignment. The goal of the ‘Team Viewing’ lecture is to encourage all residents and program faculty to view a highlighted lecture together at the hospital or other central location. This will facilitate discussion and debate following the lecture presentation. Your program may elect to include modifications to the PRESENT Structured Curriculum and may find other creative ways to incorporate this useful online resource. We hope you will log on and make the most of PRESENT Residency Education Courseware… 2007-2008 PRESENT Structured Curriculum Web Version This Week in Podiatric Residency Education Ezine

PRESENT Courseware Podiatric Residency Curriculum (PCPRC) is an orderly sequence of online lectures, building from fundamentals to advanced techniques, that will take podiatric residents through a comprehensive post-graduate educational experience.  Starting each July 1, one lectures is assigned each week, for each of the 1st, 2nd or 3rd year residents,  building on the concepts taught the week before. 
 
The NEW PRESENT Courseware Curriculum offers many benefits to podiatric residency educators:

1. It assists residency directors in fulfilling CPME 320 requirements.
2. It helps prepare residents for the challenges they will encounter during their hospital tenure.
3. It provides a standard curriculum, giving residency directors the confidence that they have provided their residents with a comprehensive post-graduate didactic education in podiatric surgery and medicine.
4. It serves as preparation for the board eligibility exam.
