agree. Residents demonstrated marked increase in their understanding of the various policy and procedure topics, as evidenced by comparison of preand posttest responses (FIGURE). The question-and-answer conclusion to the workshop resulted in a much more robust discussion of topics and further potential application scenarios generated by residents than seen in previous years with the more traditional didactic review of policies and procedures. Feasibility: presentation of policies and procedures during orientation for new residents can be effectively delivered in a case-based, interactive format. There is minimal cost for supplies and approximately 1 hour of staff time to prepare materials for the workshop. This workshop is easily replicated across programs or sponsoring institutions. Acceptability: This format leads to greater engagement with the content by residents. Self-evaluation by residents indicates improved understanding of the materials. Further study should measure residents’ retention and ability to reference and apply over time.
