GME Orientation

All new Residents and Fellows are required to complete an online orientation and attend the mandatory GME Institutional Orientation before beginning the training year. Orientation is routinely scheduled on June 24th and 25th as well as July 1st and 2nd.

The June 24th and 25th Orientation is generally for first year residents.

The July 1st and 2nd Orientation is generally for second year residents through Fellow level appointments.

Completion of all assigned online modules in addition to attendance during both days of the assigned orientation session is mandatory. Programs will conduct individual orientations on separate dates.

**House staff beginning their training year off-cycle as well as visiting house staff from other institutions, must complete a GME orientation before they are allowed to begin training and provide patient care. Off-cycle and visiting house staff must begin training on a Monday, so they may attend the institutional general orientation, MD eD-H class, a patient safety orientation and an occupational medicine pre-employment screening, in addition to other appointments that may be required by the program.
