Home Research Research Library Using the Family Medicine National Graduate Survey to Improve Residency Education by Monitoring Training Outcomes Using the Family Medicine National Graduate Survey to Improve Residency Education by Monitoring Training Outcomes 2021 Author(s) Peterson, Lars E Topic(s) Education & Training Keyword(s) Graduate Medical Education, and National Graduate Survey Volume Family Medicine Source Family Medicine Family medicine program requirements have required residencies to survey their graduates to assess outcomes. Prior to 2016, these surveys were typically institutional or regional, lacked comparable data, and had low response rates. The Family Medicine National Graduate Survey (Graduate Survey) was developed by the Association of Family Medicine Residency Directors (AFMRD) and the American Board of Family Medicine (ABFM) to provide programs more consistent, reliable feedback from their early-career graduates. The goal of the Graduate Survey is to provide programs with useful feedback and increase the specialty’s capacity to improve preparation for practice. The process of creating the survey has been previously published.
