Medical Students

Clinical Skills are pre-clinical teaching sessions for first and second year (M1 & M2) medical students. In the Fall semester, we have Clinical Skills Co-Teachers to accommodate teaching sessions for both classes. Co-Teachers are paired with an LTC (Longitudinal Teacher Coach) and their group of students. The Co-Teacher works with half of the group for the session in our simulated clinical environment (CTAC) with a standardized patient.
