Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: This study examined the educational programs for emergency residency in The Korean Society of Emergency Medicine. METHODS: A written survey of the workshop programs with representatives of the related organizations and affiliated organizations was conducted. During the 5-year period, the number of training courses and workshops attended by those who took the professional examination were analyzed. RESULTS: There were 23 workshops in progress. They proceed 2.85 times a year on average. The average number of participants was 22.8 with an average time required for the workshop of 5.6 hours, of which 78.7% is practice time. They received feedback from residency at all workshops, which was reflected in the process. During the 5-year period, the average number of participant training courses was 3.8, and the average number of workshop participants was 2.7. CONCLUSION: The education program for emergency residency is continuing through the affiliated organizations and related organizations as well as The Korean Society of Emergency Medicine. Encouraging opportunities for participation in various educational programs to supplement those that are not fully experienced will be helpful.
