• Rationale This session presents a way MDFMR has developed of teaching residents vital clinical skills in a highly experiential way. Residents need to be able to practice essential skills in a hands-on manner in an environment that is risk-free to patients. • Objectives As a result of this session, participants will be able to: Describe the rationale for and operation of a model of teaching residents critical clinical skills (procedures and approaches) on pre-determined topics through a schedule that spans residency; Describe one way in which organizers might support the planning of sessions to ensure quality; and Describe at least one way of creating low-cost or free anatomical models on which residents can practice the skills they are learning.
