title: A model preclinical, clinical, and graduate educational curriculum in emergency medicine for medical students and rotating residents.
abstract: The Society for Academic Emergency Medicine model curriculum for medical students and rotating residents was developed over a two-year period. The document was created as a complementary work to the undergraduate Core Content to provide appropriate emphasis, structure, and suggestions on the teaching of emergency medicine core curriculum topics at all levels. Consensus on the curriculum contents was reached from a national sample of emergency medicine educators. An educational matrix format was used to enhance flexibility based on the educational level of the learner and the instructional strengths of the teacher, and allowing for incorporation of a problem-based learning format. An outline of document contents and representative samples from each section are included; the entire document is available from SAEM.
