In this issue we have summarized the paper, “The Implementation of a Multi-institutional Multidisciplinary Simulation-based Resuscitation Skills Training Curriculum”, a collaboration between the University of Saskatchewan and Queen’s University.1
Post-graduate medical education is moving towards a competency-based design causing certain EPAs to become difficult to assess. Simulation presents as a good method to teach and assess rare EPAs but requires a large amount of work to be effective. The implementation of previously existing simulation curriculum to other institutions avoids inefficient use of resources and duplication of effort.
In the future, the cases in this study will be peer-reviewed and uploaded online.
