Abstract

The University of Toronto launched a longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC) pilot project in 2014. Our aim was to evaluate LIC student outcomes in obstetrics and gynaecology compared with those of traditional block students. LIC and block students underwent identical evaluations, including written and oral exams, as well as clinical assessments from the ward. LIC student scores in each domain were compared with those of the traditional block students over 4 years. There were no differences in overall pass/fail status between LIC and block students. Thus, our LIC design could be appropriately modeled at other teaching institutions contemplating introducing an LIC stream.
