Residency education.
Residency education has an interesting history in the US that speaks clearly about some of the cherished beliefs still perpetuated in today's residency training programs. The history also provides a foundation for considering how the current knowledge of adult education theory and practice can be incorporated into residency education programs. The author presents a brief overview of the history of residency education in the US followed by a recommendation for applying a conception of adult learning to residency education.
