Every resident is assigned a faculty academic advisor.
This system provides an opportunity to form mentoring relationships and to link new residents with specific faculty who know the system well. These forms become part of the residents' evaluation folder and are available for review by the residents and their advisors. Additionally, residents and interns on each team meet midway through the month to foster a spirit of online feedback and encouragement. This committee, comprised of the faculty advisors, meets regularly to monitor the progress of each of the residents and to provide a summary evaluation of their performance at the end of each academic year.
