Curriculum Overview

Our curricula are a dynamic integration of immersive small group learning sessions where fellows get to learn from a faculty expert through discussions on a weekly basis as well as from hands on experiential learning in clinical venues with coaching and mentoring by a team of inter-professional faculty experts. The program is based on the adult learning theory principles of guided autonomy and self-awareness. The curriculum is based on ACGME recommended competencies and Entrustable Professional Activities (EPA’s) for palliative medicine, ACGME Common Program Requirements and the ACGME measurable outcomes for hospice and palliative medicine.
