The future of professional medical and surgical residency education is one that is on the mind of all physicians and surgeons today. The increasing amount of information that requires dissemination and the need for standardization is often at odds with different models and programmatic cultures. How to standardize and how to improve? To that end, we will discuss this with one of the leading thinkers in this area today, John Steinberg. Dr. Steinberg is a Podiatric Surgeon and is Assistant Professor in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Georgetown University School of Medicine. His career has been a stellar one, from his early work at the University of Texas through to his current work in Georgetown, it has been punctuated by advances in Education. He is presently Editor of PRESENTS, a podiatric foot and ankle education program that has standardized didactics at more than 100 residency training programs, nationwide.

All faculty participating in any PRESENT e-Learning Systems sponsored programs are expected to disclose to the program audience any real or apparent conflict(s) of interest that may have a direct bearing on the subject matter of the continuing education program. This pertains to relationships with pharmaceutical companies, biomedical device manufacturers, or other corporations whose products or services are related to the subject matter of the presentation topic. The intent of this policy is not to prevent a speaker with a potential conflict of interest from making a presentation. It is merely intended that any potential conflict should be identified openly so that the listeners may form their own judgments about the presentation with the full disclosure of the facts.
