Abstract
Genitourinary training associates (GTAs) are individuals educated to teach medical learners invasive exams and procedures using their own body. Through specified protocols, the GTA teaches exam techniques to students in a supportive environment while giving feedback to the learner to optimize skill acquisition. Additionally, this experience can teach best practices for future provider-patient communication. To help ensure access to GTAs for medical learners, physician assistant (PA) programs should consider developing a GTA training program at their institution. The purpose of this article is to outline the necessary steps to educate GTAs and develop a GTA training program.
