I am not all too experienced when it comes to transitional year residents hence my question. In the ADS update, under the "actively enrolled residents" there is a question about prior training. I would consider a transitional year as prior training however someone commented it to be 0 (zero). I feel it should be counted as one (1) and furthermore documentation is needed, as part of the CPR from the previous program as with a transfer resident - is this the case? The ADS update indicates "documentation of previous experience should be available..." however identifies this for a resident accepted as a transfer or completed prerequisite, preliminary training. This particular resident matched into the program. | ||

If you are the TY program, and this is your resident in the TY program, then their years of prior training is most likely zero unless they were in some other residency program before they joined your TY program (which would be very rare). | ||

We are not the TY program. The resident completed a TY elsewhere then matched into our IM residency program. | ||

I'm sorry I misunderstood your original post. For that individual resident, i would agree with you that he/ she has 1 year of prior training. | ||

Hi Peggy: I think it depends on your program and the acceptance of the TY credits towards their prelim year credit. Every specialty is different (I learned this in Neurology), and the requirements that must be fulfilled for that year and how they are fulfilled are different from TY, to Prelim You might have to detail to make sure they met the requirements for your specialty. | ||

Crys - For the IM program, previous training (TY or prelim year) is not required and to my knowledge the resident is not receiving prior credit. I agree that I should make an inquiry to the RC - so much for a simple question! | ||

Agreed! I think the answer is no but you should check. |
