The University of Colorado Office of Graduate Medical Education is committed to:
- Providing leadership, education, and support to its residency and fellowship programs. As residents and fellows move from students to independent physicians it is our mission to provide them with the knowledge, skills, attitude, and judgement to be successful in autonomous clinical practice.
- Ensuring residents and fellows strive for excellence in patient care, teaching, research, and scholarship and establish the foundation of lifelong learning.
- Creating an environment where faculty and staff model joy in academic discovery, curiosity, effective problem solving and unfailing professionalism
- Supporting our learners in all ways while they undergo a crucible change in a physically and emotionally demanding endeavor.
- Achieving a high and consistent level of ACGME accreditation for both the institution as well as all accredited residency and fellowship programs within
- Caring for those who provide the support and structure of our training programs – our GME team, the program coordinators and educational associates – with the same regard and expectations we have for our doctors; we recognize these teams as the backbone of any successful graduate medical education program.
