List of Resources
CDIM-SGIM Core Medicine Clerkship Guide
The Core Medicine Clerkship Curriculum Guide was created through the collaboration of SGIM and the Clerkship Directors in Internal Medicine (CDIM). Version 3.0 of the Curriculum Guide and the Curriculum Pocket Guide can be found at the CDIM web site.
Medical Resident Clinic Directors "Orientation Manual"
Based on a consensus process, members of the Medical Resident Clinic Directors Interest Group (MRCDIG) of SGIM developed learning objectives for faculty and clinic directors practicing in medical residents' continuity clinics. These were presented during a precourse at the SGIM national meeting in May, 2002. Subsequently, they have revised and refined the content to create the Medical Resident Clinic Directors Interest Group (MRCDIG) orientation manual. The primary goal has been to create a document that can serve to guide clinic directors and faculty as they develop programs to meet their local needs and to help orient new faculty to this key learning environment.
