Educational objectives for residency training in urology.
A description of the development of educational objectives for urologic residency training is presented. The purpose of these objectives is to define the knowledge and skills expected of urology residents at the completion of their training. Twenty-six urologists from residency programs throughout the country, one resident, and one medical educator formed a task force for the Society of University Urologists to write these objectives. During a one-year period, fifty-five sets of objectives were drafted, reviewed, and revised into the present form. Discussion of the methodological problems and implications for residents and program directors are included.
