- Abstract: Surgical proficiency significantly impacts cardiovascular surgery outcomes. Regular training for surgical procedures is essential. Since 2018, cardiovascular surgery's specialty system has mandated Off the Job Training (OffJT), defined as non-clinical work training that fulfills certification criteria. A minimum of 30h of OffJT is required for specialty acquisition. Presently, a review is being conducted to examine disparities in OffJT credit acquisition across various facilities and the lack of a standardized OffJT curriculum. This report details a survey of the current OffJT landscape, focusing primarily on executives under 40 years old. We employed a questionnaire-based approach to explore the types of training being conducted and the innovative strategies being implemented, along with an analysis of the findings.
