Otolaryngology Core Curriculum: A Standardized, Unified Curriculum to Support Otolaryngology Residents in Training (2023 AMW)
2023 AAO-HNSF Annual Meeting & OTO Experience
The AAO-HNSF and the otolaryngology academic community have embarked on creating a standardized, unified curriculum to support otolaryngology residents in training. This new education product will be known as the Otolaryngology Core Curriculum (OCC) and will provide 100 modules of education content over a two-year course of study. Set to launch July 1, 2024, James C. Denneny III, MD, AAO-HNS/F Executive Vice President and CEO, Sonya Malekzadeh, MD, and Jeffery P. Simons, MD, MMM, will describe how the OCC will support all otolaryngology residents in the U.S. regardless of other education assets that their individual programs may offer. The consistency afforded by this project will be particularly valuable to residency programs with limited resources and will directly affect patient care downstream. There may also be opportunities available to disseminate this knowledge globally through our International Corresponding Societies and help raise the standard of patient care throughout the world.
